We present a comprehensive account of our efforts directed towards the synthesis of sacubitril, a neprilysin inhibitor used in combination with valsartan and marketed as Entresto™. Our initial approach to the formal synthesis of sacubitril employed a chiral pool strategy, utilizing (S)-pyroglutamic acid as a key building block and Cu(I)-mediated Csp-Csp cross-coupling as a key transformation. Further investigations led to the development of chiral amine transfer (CAT) reagents-based stereoselective synthesis.

Polycyclic conjugated hydrocarbons have acquired increased interests recently because of their potential applications in electronic devices. On metal surfaces, the selective synthesis of four- and five-membered carbon rings remains challenging due to the presence of diverse reaction pathways. Here, utilizing the same precursor molecule, we successfully achieved substrate-controlled highly selective cycloaddition reactions towards four- and five-membered carbon rings.

Isoindolones constitute a dominant structural class in synthetic and medicinal chemistry. In this research, an electrochemical reaction involving 2-alkynylbenzamides, inorganic sulfites, and alcohols was first established to provide sulfonyl ester-substituted 3-hydroxyisoindolinone derivatives in moderate to good yields with excellent functional group tolerance. When bulky aryl-substituted 2-alkynylbenzamides are utilized as substrates, sulfonyl ester-substituted 3-alkylideneisoindolinones can be selectively generated with good chemoselectivity.

Herein, we report the Ag-catalyzed substrate-controlled interrupted radical pathways of the iminyl radical. The benzylic groups played a crucial role in pathway selection involving a series of dimerization and hydrolysis, a 1,5-H shift followed by cascade radical cyclization, and direct N-(sp)/aromatization reactions that provide access to diverse cyclic/acyclic ketones, quinolines, and phenanthridine derivatives. Contrary to previous reports, mechanistic investigations with high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis uncovered the involvement of rare azine, oxime, and β-functionalized vinyl azide intermediates.

The radical-mediated difunctionalization of 1,3-enynes facilitates rapid access to structurally diverse allenes and dienes. Whereas, owing to the existence of multiple active sites in conjugated 1,3-enynes, regulating selectivity in difunctionalized addition a single transition-metal-catalyzed radical tandem process remains elusive. Herein, we disclose an intriguing protocol of substrate-controlled nickel-catalyzed regiodivergent sulfonylarylation of 1,3-enynes with the assistance of sulfonyl chlorides and arylboronic acids.
