The oxidative dearomatization of resorcinol derivatives, which are outfitted with a lactic acid derived chiral tether, and mitigated by hypervalent iodine derivatives of PhIO, affords stable chiral cyclohexadienones as useful building blocks for the construction of many highly functionalized chiral six and seven-membered ring systems. Herein, we report a multitude of remarkable and unexpected diastereoselective transformations stemming from these cyclohexadienone adducts.

Due to its unique three-dimensional (3D) configuration and great application potential in medicinal chemistry and synthetic community, chemists have been pursuing concise and efficient methods to synthesize C3 spirocyclic indoline derivatives. In this work, a dearomatization-spirocyclization-nucleophilic addition tandem approach was developed to realize the synthesis of 2-phosphonylated C3 spirocyclic indolines with indolyl-ynones and phosphine oxides as reactants; mild conditions, broad substrate scope, and good yields are characteristics of this transformation.

Skeletal editing represents an attractive strategy for adding complexity to a given molecular scaffold in chemical synthesis. Isodesmic reactions provide a complementary skeletal editing approach for the redistribution of chemical bonds in chemical synthesis. However, catalytic enantioselective isodesmic reaction is extremely scarce and enantioselective isodesmic reaction to synthesize atropisomeric compounds is unknown.

A highly efficient method has been developed for synthesizing 4-dienyl dihydropyridines through the nucleophilic dearomatization of activated pyridines using vinyl sulfoxonium ylides. This reaction follows the sequence involving ylide addition to activated pyridine, [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement, and subsequent sulfenic acid elimination. The resulting 4-dienyl dihydropyridines are then used in the synthesis of highly substituted -heterocyles.

Herein we report two processes facilitated by diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) for the synthesis of novel bridged polycyclic molecule analogues to natural products. The use of 4-bromoisochroman-3-one initiated an autoxidation reaction, followed by a Diels-Alder cycloaddition in the presence of electron-deficient dienophiles. Mechanistic studies revealed isochromane-3,4-dione as a key intermediate, which undergoes in situ dienolization/dearomatization followed by a [4 + 2] cycloaddition.

Arylative dearomatization forms quaternary stereocenters in cyclic systems with the concomitant introduction of an aromatic ring. Pd-catalyzed arylative dearomatization, which uses conditions analogous to cross-coupling, has emerged as a powerful method in an intramolecular context. But translating this from intramolecular cyclizations to an intermolecular process has proven extremely challenging: examples are scarce, and those that exist have not been rendered enantioselective, despite the potential for broad application in medicinal chemistry and natural product synthesis.
