A new strategy for thiazoles via copper-catalyzed [3+1+1]-type condensation reaction from oximes, anhydrides and potassiumthiocyanate (KSCN) is developed herein. The transformation has good functional group tolerance and various thiazoles were formed smoothly in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. This process involves copper-catalyzed N-O/C-S bond cleavages, activation of vinyl sp C-H bond, and C-S/C-N bond formations which are under redox-neutral conditions as well as operational simplicity.

A first -type tricyclic 8-8-8 (three fused-8-membered ring) laddersiloxane functionalized with four azido groups was successfully synthesized through efficient and highly selective hydrosilylation and nucleophilic substitution, achieving an excellent overall yield. The starting material, a tetravinyl-substituted 8-8-8 laddersiloxane, was prepared via a straightforward and scalable method. The obtained azido-functionalized ladder compound, fully characterized, constitutes a versatile building block for hybrid materials.

Our efforts toward the synthesis of the marine natural product portimine are described. The key to the synthesis of the skeleton is a stereoretentive copper-catalyzed C()-C() Stille-type cross-coupling that enables the convergent assembly of functionalized fragments. The core skeleton of portimine was constructed via ring-closing metathesis and transannular acetal formation.

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.

The importance of lectins in biological processes such as pathogen recognition, cell adhesion, and cell recognition is well documented. C-Type lectins, which require calcium for binding, play an important role in the innate immune response by engaging carbohydrates presented as part of the human and pathogen glycocalyx. For example, lectins such as MBL, Dectin-2, langerin and DC-SIGN selectively recognize mannose rich (high-mannose) structures presented as part of the glycocalyx.

The asymmetric Büchner reaction and related arene cyclopropanations represent one type of the powerful methods for enantioselective dearomatization. However, examples of asymmetric Büchner reactions via a non-diazo approach are quite scarce, and the related arene cyclopropanation based on alkynes has not been reported. Herein, we disclose an asymmetric Büchner reaction and the related arene cyclopropanation by copper-catalyzed controllable cyclization of N-propargyl ynamides via vinyl cation intermediates, leading to chiral tricycle-fused cycloheptatrienes and benzonorcaradienes in high yields and enantioselectivities.
