An efficient method for chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed asymmetric synthesis of arylindolyl indolin-3-ones with both axial and central chirality has been developed via the reaction of 3-arylindoles with 2-aryl-3H-indol-3-ones, and the target products were obtained in high yields with excellent enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity.

This study tackles the challenge of enantiodifferentiation of nitrile compounds, which is typically difficult to resolve using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) due to the significant distance between the chiral center and the nitrogen atom involved in molecular interactions. We have developed novel chiral F-labeled probes, each featuring two chiral centers, to exploit the "match-mismatch" effect, thereby enhancing enantiodiscrimination. This strategy effectively differentiates chiral analytes with quaternary chiral carbon centers as well as those with similar substituents at the chiral center.

Graft-through ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of norbornene-terminated macromonomers (MMs) prepared using various polymerization methods has been extensively used for the synthesis of bottlebrush (co)polymers, yet the potential of ROMP for the synthesis of MMs that can subsequently be polymerized by graft-through ROMP to produce new bottlebrush compositions remains untapped. Here, we report an efficient "ROMP-of-ROMP" method that involves the synthesis of norbornene-terminated poly(norbornene imide) (PNI)-based MMs that, following ROMP, provide new families of bottlebrush (co)polymers and "brush-on-brush" hierarchical architectures. In the bulk state, the organization of the PNI pendants drives bottlebrush backbone extension to enable rapid assembly of asymmetric lamellar morphologies with large asymmetry factors.

In our previous studies of metal nanoparticle growth, we have come to realize that the dynamic interplay between ligand passivation and metal deposition, as opposed to static facet control, is responsible for focused growth at a few active sites. In this work, we show that the same underlying principle could be applied to a very different system and explain the abnormal growth modes of liquid nanoparticles. In such a liquid active surface growth (LASG), the interplay between droplet expansion and simultaneous silica shell encapsulation gives rise to an active site of growth, which eventually becomes the long necks of nanobottles.

Carboranyl amines are distinct from typical organic amines. Due to the electronic influence of the carborane cage, they have low nucleophilicity and are reluctant to alkylate. Moreover, asymmetric synthesis of chiral carboranes is still in its infancy.

We report the stereoselective total synthesis of kavaratamide A, a linear lipodepsipeptide from the cyanobacterium (collected in Kavaratti, India), and its unnatural C25-epimer. The convergent approach employs Keck asymmetric allylation to construct the chiral β-hydroxy carboxylic acid fragment [(3)-HDA; 3-hydroxydecanoic acid], while the peptide unit was assembled from L-Val, -Me-L-Ala, ()-Hiva, and ()-Pr--Me-pyr using well-orchestrated coupling methods to prevent racemization. Modifications to the Keck allylation conditions enabled the synthesis of the C25-epimer with good yield.
