1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition reaction of acetonitrile oxide to cis- and trans-22-hydroxy-24-alkoxycarbonyl-Δ(23)-steroids is investigated. An unusual stereochemical course of the cycloaddition, leading to the same set of the isoxazoline adducts for both (Z)- and (E)-disubstituted olefins is revealed. It is shown, the reaction is regioselective and all possible 4',5'-diastereoisomers of resulting isoxazolines can be prepared as major products by cycloaddition to the suitable alkene. The structure of the key compounds is confirmed by X-ray and 2D NMR analysis.

ConspectusControlling selectivity through manipulation of reaction intermediates remains one of the most enduring challenges in organic chemistry, providing novel solutions for selective C-C π-bond functionalization. This approach, guided by activation principles, provides an effective method for selective functional group installation, enabling direct synthesis of organic molecules that are inaccessible through conventional pathways. In particular, the selective functionalization of N-conjugated allenes and alkynes has emerged as a promising research focus, driven by advances in controlling reactive intermediates and activation strategies.

We report herein a directing group-controlled, palladium-catalyzed, regio-, stereo-, and enantiospecific anti-carboxylation of unactivated, internal allenes enabled via the synergistic interplay of a rationally designed bidentate directing group, palladium catalyst, and a multifunctional acetate ligand. The corresponding trans allyl ester was obtained in excellent yields with exclusive δ-regioselectivity and anti-carboxypalladation stereocontrol. The acetate ligand of the palladium catalyst controls the regio-, stereo- and enantioselectivity in the desired transformation.

The advancement of stereoregular polymerization techniques for linear 1,3-dienes has enabled the production of polymers with precise stereocontrol, influencing their physical and chemical properties significantly. While 1,3-butadiene and isoprene yield diverse stereoregular polymers, cyclic dienes have received less attention due to catalyst challenges and limited application in the rubber industry. However, the growing interest in bio-based monomers, particularly those derived from terpenes and terpenoids, has revitalized interest in cyclic monomers with conjugated double bonds.

Stereoselective alkene 1,2-difunctionalization is a privileged strategy to access three-dimensional C(sp)-rich chiral molecules from readily available "flat" carbon feedstocks. State-of-the-art approaches exploit chiral transition metal-catalysts to enable high levels of regio- and stereocontrol. However, this is often achieved at the expense of a limited alkene scope and reduced generality.

C-H functionalization of purely aliphatic substrates is a challenging endeavor, as the absence of directing groups generally thwarts attempts at regiocontrol. This is particularly true for difunctionalization reactions, where the control of relative stereochemistry poses an additional obstacle. The Baddeley reaction of decalins, despite suffering from strong limitations with regard to yield and generality, stands as one of only few known transformations capable of regio- and stereocontrol in aliphatic C-H functionalization.
