A Lewis acid-mediated, 5/6/7/8- reductive hydroalkoxylation cascade on enynols gives expeditious, diastereoselective access to small and medium ring cyclic ethers with a long aliphatic side chain. The brevity of the approach allowed a 4-step, stereoselective total synthesis of (±)-isolaurepan and (±)--lauthisan.

Acid catalysed reductive etherification of -propargyl amino alcohols for the stereoselective synthesis of -2,5/2,6-disubstituted morpholines and -2,6/2,7-disubstituted oxazepanes has been developed. Mechanistic studies revealed that terminal alkynols gave morpholines a 6- hydroalkoxylation-isomerization-reduction cascade. Interestingly, an alkyne hydration-cyclization-reduction sequence is found to be involved in the formation of oxazepanes from alkyl substituted internal alkynols.

Lewis-acid-catalyzed 5 reductive hydroalkoxylation cascade on propargylic -hydroxylamine gave expedient, stereoselective access to isoxazolidine derivatives. The developed method provides a new approach toward the synthesis of isoxazolidine, a biologically privileged scaffold. The synthetic potential of the developed methodology was demonstrated by synthesizing 1,3-aminoalcohol, 4-aminotetrahydropyran, and sedamine natural products.

A visible-light-induced, intramolecular, reductive cyclisation of ketones with an unsaturated hydrocarbon moiety was developed. In contrast to conventional protocols requiring resource precious or hazardous metal sources, this method enables facile access to ketyl radicals under metal-free and mild reaction conditions. By polarity-reversed, ketyl radical hydroalkoxylation of alkynes and allenes, a variety of five-membered (hetero-)cyclic products were generated in good yields with good to excellent stereoselectivities.
