It has been established that an in situ-generated cationic platinum(II)/-BINAP complex catalyzes the intramolecular dearomative 5-endo spirocyclization of -(methylnaphthalenyl)propiolamides via the deprotonation-protonation sequence (formal aromatic ene reaction). Mechanistic studies revealed that our previously reported dearomative 6-endo cyclization followed by the Friedel-Crafts reaction is kinetically and thermodynamically unfavored, and thus, the 5-endo spirocyclization proceeds selectively.

Synthetic lethality offers a robust strategy for discovering the next generation of precision medicine therapies tailored for molecularly defined patient populations. MAT2A inhibition is synthetically lethal in several cancers that exhibit a homozygous deletion of -methyl-5'-thioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP). Herein, we report the identification of novel MAT2A inhibitors featuring a spiral ring to circumvent the C-N atropisomeric chirality utilizing structure-based drug design.

As a class of readily available and multifunctional building blocks, the chemistry of 4-alken-2-ynyl carbonates remains to be explored. Presented herein is a palladium-catalysed cascade transformative reaction between 4-alken-2-ynyl carbonates and -functionalised activated alkenes. Achiral 1,1-bisalkyl-4-alken-2-ynyl carbonates undergo highly regioselective propargylic substitution with -hydroxyphenyl-tethered activated alkenes, and an auto-tandem vinylogous addition, unusual central-carbon Tsuji-Trost alkylation, protonation and β-H elimination process is followed to furnish fused and spirocyclic frameworks with high structural complexity.

A facile two-step enantiospecific synthesis of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroindolizine scaffolds has been developed via TMSOTf-promoted [3 + 2] cycloaddition between carbohydrate-derived spirocyclic donor-acceptor cyclopropanecarboxlates and alkyl/aryl nitriles followed by an intramolecular Mitsunobu reaction of the resulting chiral 2/5-(4-hydroxybutyl)pyrrole derivatives.

Spirocyclic alkyl amino carbene (SCAAC) Ru complexes demonstrate outstanding activity and selectivity in ethenolysis of methyl oleate (MO) or fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), and 5,6-dimethoxyindane derivative was the most active catalyst to date. For the further catalyst design, we proposed modifying the spirocyclic fragment by fusion of saturated carbo- or heterocycle, linked to the 5,6-positions of indane or 6,7- positions of tetralin. Another suggested way of the modification of SCAAC complex was the insertion of chromane fragment to the carbene ligand.
