A highly diastereo- and enantioselective silver-catalyzed azomethine ylide-imine (AYI) cycloaddition reaction of glycine aldimino esters with imines was developed in which the Xing-Phos-controlled syn-selective or DTBM-Segphos-induced anti-selective AYI cycloaddition reaction could be applied to the synthesis of a variety of stereodivergent 1-alkyl-2,5-substituted imidazolidines with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) as well as good diastereoselectivities (up to 99:1 dr) under mild reaction conditions.

Cycloaddition is a fundamental transformation, featuring the assembly of complex cyclic molecules with multiple stereocenters. We report here a silver-catalyzed [3+2]-cycloaddition of 2,3-disubstituted cyclobutenones with an array of azomethine ylide precursors iminoesters, furnishing azabicycles in good yields and enantioselectivities. Up to three contiguous all-carbon quaternary centers, including two angular stereocenters, could be constructed efficiently, due to high reactivity of strained cyclobutenones.

An unprecedented Ag-catalyzed exo'-selective [3+2] cycloaddition of imino esters with 4-benzylidene-2,3-dioxopyrrolidines is described. The reaction was efficiently catalyzed by Ag/(R, S )-ThioClickFerrophos (TCF) leading to the construction of the corresponding spirobipyrrolidine scaffolds in excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivities. This reaction is the first example of a silver-catalyzed exo'-selective asymmetric [3+2] cycloaddition, as well as the first exo'-selective spirobipyrrolidine construction via a [3+2] cycloaddition process using imino esters.

In contrast to the well-established [3+2] cycloaddition reactions, the catalytic enantioselective [3+n] (n≥3) cycloaddition reaction of activated isocyanides for the preparation of six-membered or larger ring systems has remained underdeveloped. Herein, we report the first example of highly diastereo- and enantioselective [3+3] cycloaddition of activated isocyanides with azomethine imines. By employing silver catalysis, a wide range of biologically important bicyclic 1,2,4-triazines were obtained in high yields (up to 99 %) with good to excellent stereoselectivities (up to >20 : 1 dr, 99 % ee).

A silver-catalyzed highly enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of α-silylimines with pyrone-based trisubstituted olefins was developed affording bi- and tricyclic α-quaternary-carbon-rich pyrano-pyrrolidines in excellent yields. The tricyclic benzopyrone adducts thus obtained were efficiently transformed into highly complex tetracyclic scaffolds supporting four consecutive stereogenic centers with three quaternary carbons.
