()-2,15-Cl-DHTP-boron complex catalyst for the asymmetric Diels-Alder cycloaddition of 2'-hydroxychalcones and dienes was developed and tested. The resulting cyclohexenes with three chiral centers were obtained in high yields (up to 98%) with excellent stereoselectivities (up to >20:1 /, >99% ee). This catalytic system features high efficiency, broad substrate scopes, and mild reaction conditions. In addition, a DFT study was performed to explain the stereochemical course of the asymmetric induction.

Asymmetric cycloaddition is a straightforward strategy which enables the synthesis of structurally distinct cyclic derivatives which are difficult to access by other methodologies, using an efficient and atom-economical path from simple precursors. In recent years several asymmetric catalytic cyclization strategies have been accomplished for the construction of -heterocycles using various catalytic systems such as chiral metal catalysts, chiral Lewis acids or chiral organocatalysts. This review presents an overview of the recent advances in enantioselective cyclization reactions of 1-azadienes catalyzed by non-covalent organocatalysts.

A copper catalyzed enantioselective formal aza-Diels-Alder reaction of formed 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes from α-halohydrazones and vinyl diazo compounds was described. The protocol provides a variety of optically enriched diazo-containing tetrahydropyridazines in moderate yields and with up to excellent enantioselectivities. The present methodologies utilize chiral oxazolines as the chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis and feature mild reaction conditions, readily available substrates, and broad substrate scope.

Rational control over the morphologies of supramolecular assemblies for asymmetric catalysis with enhanced enantioselectivity represents a pivotal challenge in the realm of synthetic chemistry and material technology. Herein, Cu(II) ion-mediated supramolecular nanostructures assembled from chiral amino acid-based amphiphiles (l/d-AlaC) are fabricated as chiral catalysts for Diels-Alder cycloaddition between aza-chalcone and cyclopentadiene. In particular, compared with the supramolecular nanosheet formed by l/d-AlaC without Cu(II) ions, we found that the l/d-alanine chiral amphiphile can form supramolecular nanotubes with a multilayer structure and with the thickness of the tubular wall about 15 nm through the transition from a nanoribbon to tubular structure in the presence of Cu(II) ions.

Chiral 1,3-amino alcohols are ubiquitous structural motifs in natural products and active pharmaceutical ingredients. We present a highly enantioselective, inverse-electron-demand hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of olefins with in situ generated -Boc-formaldimine catalyzed by strong and confined Bro̷nsted acids. This transformation provides direct access to valuable 1,3-amino alcohols from styrenes and 1,1-disubtituted alkenes.

Chiral bifunctional thiourea-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction between olefinic azlactones and alkylidene thiazolone derivatives is reported here for the first time. The asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction delivers vicinal tertiary-quaternary stereocenters in spirocyclohexenone thiazolones in moderate to high yields and good stereochemical outcomes. The protocol can be adapted to a broad array of substrates.
