A concise synthetic method for dihydropyrans has been developed by inverse-electron-demand oxa-Diels-Alder reaction of α-keto-β,γ-unsaturated esters with α,β-unsaturated hydrazones as electron-rich olefins. This reaction is catalyzed by Eu(hfc) and proceeds in an endo-selective manner. This umpolung cycloaddition affords a variety of substituted dihydropyrans stereoselectively in high yields. In addition, indirect synthesis of formyl-substituted dihydropyran was achieved by dehydrazonation of the cycloadduct. This method is expected to be useful for the synthesis of dihydropyrans and tetrahydropyrans with unusual substitution patterns.

Novel construction methods for obtaining 3,4'-pyran spirooxindole heterocyclic skeletons have always been the focus of attention. Herein, we report a highly enantioselective inverse-electron-demand oxa-Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction of a β,γ-unsaturated pyrazole amide and a -diphenyl isatin-derived oxodiene using a bifunctional catalyst. In addition, large-scale experiments confirmed the reliability of the reaction.

The catalytic asymmetric inverse-electron-demand oxa-Diels-Alder (IODA) reaction is a highly effective synthetic method for creating enantioenriched six-membered oxygen-containing heterocycles. Despite significant effort in this area, simple α,β-unsaturated aldehydes/ketones and nonpolarized alkenes are seldom utilized as substrates due to their low reactivity and difficulties in achieving enantiocontrol. This report describes an intermolecular asymmetric IODA reaction between α-bromoacroleins and neutral alkenes that is catalyzed by oxazaborolidinium cation 1f.

Catalytic CO reduction with phenylsilane under solvent-free conditions was linked with the one-pot synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrans from β-dicarbonyl compounds and styrenes. The synthesis includes three processes: (1) bis(silyl)acetal formation from CO and phenylsilane and a domino reaction of (2) Knoevenagel condensation and (3) inverse-electron-demand oxa-Diels-Alder reaction. The first process was catalyzed by a pentanuclear Zn complex (0.

Here we uncovered that the dienones generated from the Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates of 2-cyclopentenone under Pd(0) catalysis could be umpolunged by regioselectively forming η-Pd(0) complexes via π-Lewis base activation, and underwent asymmetric inverse-electron-demand oxa-Diels-Alder reaction with α-cyano chalcones. An array of fused pyran frameworks with dense substitutions was constructed with excellent stereoselectivity (up to 99% ee, >19:1 dr), which could be elaborated to access enantioenriched architectures with higher molecular complexity.

An inverse-electron-demand oxa-Diels-Alder reaction of 5-alkenyl thiazolones with β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds enabled by quinine thiourea was studied, which allows the enantioselective synthesis of a broad range of highly functionalized pyranthiazoles bearing three continuous stereocenters. This protocol is adaptable to a wide scope of substrates and has great potential for scale-up synthesis and facile transformation.
