Micellar catalysis enables copper-catalyzed silylcupration of a variety of electron-deficient alkynes, thereby providing access to isomerically pure E- or Z-β-silyl-substituted carbonyl derivatives. These reactions take place in minutes, afford high yields and stereoselectivity, and are especially tolerant of functional groups present in the substrates. The aqueous reaction medium has been successfully recycled several times, and a substrate/catalyst ratio of 10,000:1 has been documented for this methodology.

This paper describes a tunable and stereoselective dual catalytic system that uses copper and palladium reagents. This cooperative silylcupration and palladium-catalyzed allylation readily affords trisubstituted alkenylsilanes. Fine-tuning the reaction conditions allows selective access to one stereoisomer over the other.

A useful strategy for cycloheptane annulations from oxo- and epoxyallylsilanes, prepared by silylcupration of allenes, has been developed, and their application to the stereoselective synthesis of 4-methylenecycloheptan-1-ols is of great potential in the construction of seven-membered ring natural products presented.

A novel highly stereoselective spiro-cyclopropanation reaction from oxoallylsilanes is described. Oxoallylsilanes are readily obtained by silylcupration of allene followed by conjugate addition to enones. The former oxoallylsilanes undergo a tandem cyclization-cyclopropanation reaction when treated with CH2I2/Me3Al, leading to hydroxylated polycyclic systems bearing the spiro-cyclopropane moiety.

Several approaches to the synthesis of ebelactone A 2 are described, culminating in the synthesis of the benzenesulfonate of 2-epi-ebelactone A 161. All the approaches were based on three fragments A, B and C, originally defined in general terms in, but eventually used as the aldehyde 72, the allenylsilane 3 and the aldehyde 139, respectively. They were joined, first B with C, and then B+C with A.
