A library of monoterpene-based aminodiols was synthesized and applied as chiral catalysts in the addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde. The reduction of a bicyclic α-methylene ketone, derived from natural (-)-limonene followed by epoxidation, gave the key epoxy alcohol intermediate. Ring opening of the oxirane ring with primary amines induced by lithium perchlorate afforded the required aminodiols. Substituent-dependent ring closure of the secondary aminodiols with formaldehyde resulted in both spirooxazolidines and a fused 1,3-oxazine. Cyclization reactions of the studied aminodiols, resulting in spirocyclic oxazolidines and an isomeric perhydro-1,3-oxazine-fused compound along with the possible iminium intermediates, were analyzed by a systematic series of comparative DFT models performed at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory.

A new series of aminodiols, aminotetraols and 1,2,3-triazoles based on -gibberic acid were synthesized in a stereoselective manner, starting from commercially available gibberellic acid. -Gibberic acid, prepared from gibberellic acid according to a literature method, was applied to SeO/-BuOOH-mediated allylic oxidation, yielding the triol, which is a key intermediate. After protecting the 1,4-diol functionality as acetonide, epoxidation was performed using either -CPBA or -BuOOH/VO(acac) to produce the epoxy alcohol.

The synthetic methodology for the preparation of photoresponsive dioxazaborocanes-containing oligomers is developed. It relies on the transformation of the (diisopropylamino)boryl group (-BH(NiPr)) into a dioxazaborocane unit in the presence of β-aminodiols and involves a bis-borylated dithienylethene photochromic unit. The photophysical properties of the obtained oligomers are evaluated as well as their processability for the preparation of spin-coated films.

Benzylation of isopulegol furnished -benzyl-protected isopulegol, which was transformed into aminodiols epoxidation followed by ring opening of the corresponding epoxides and subsequent hydrogenolysis. On the other hand, (-)-isopulegol was oxidised to a diol, which was then converted into dibenzyl-protected diol derivatives. The products were then transformed into aminotriols by using a similar method.

A library of regioisomeric monoterpene-based aminodiols was synthesised and applied as chiral catalysts in the addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde. The synthesis of the first type of aminodiols was achieved starting from (-)-8,9-dihydroperillaldehyde via reductive amination, followed by Boc protection and dihydroxylation with the OsO/NMO system. Separation of formed stereoisomers resulted in a library of aminodiol diastereoisomers.

Samarium diiodide (SmI) mediated reductive coupling reactions are powerful methods for the construction of carbon-carbon bond in organic synthesis. Despite the extensive development in recent decades, successful examples of the corresponding asymmetric reactions remained scarce, probably due to the involvement of highly reactive radical intermediates. In this Article, we report an enantioselective dearomatization of indoles via SmI-mediated intermolecular reductive coupling with ketones.
