Article Abstract
A new method for the direct, stereoselective synthesis of highly functionalized 1,3-disubstituted isoindolines 6 from enantiomerically enriched cyclic 4-aryl-sulfamidate-5-carboxylates (5) is described. The process involves sulfamidate directed, Rh(III)-catalyzed tandem ortho C-H olefination of the 4-aryl-sulfamidate-5-carboxylates and subsequent cyclization by aza-Michael addition. In the reaction, which generates trans-1,3-disubstituted isoindolines exclusively, the configurational integrity of the stereogenic center in the starting cyclic sulfamidate is completely retained in the product. Examples are provided which show that the cyclic sulfamidate moiety not only serves as a chiral directing group but also as a versatile handle for further functionalization of the generated isoindoline ring system.

Cytochrome P450 enzymes (P450s), particularly those of microbial origin, are highly versatile biocatalysts capable of catalyzing a broad range of regio- and stere-oselective reactions. P450s derived from extremophiles are of particular interest due to their potential tolerance to high temperature, salinity, and acidity. This study aimed to identify and classify novel microbial P450 enzymes from extreme environments across Türkiye, including hydrothermal springs, hypersaline lakes, and an acid-mine drainage site.

Herein, we report an easily tunable and regioselective Pd-catalyzed allene-alkyne coupling protocol for the stereodivergent synthesis of - and -1,3-enynes using purine allenamine by a simple switch of ligands P(-tolyl)Ph and Boc-Phe-OH. For the first time, we have explored mono--protected amino acids (MPAAs) as ligands in allene-alkyne coupling to furnish -1,3-enynes selectively. This protocol streamlined the access to chiral 1,3-enynes and addressed the long-standing stereoselectivity challenges associated with 1,3-enynes from allene-alkyne coupling.

Optically active α-aminophosphonic acids are unique analogues of α-amino acids, and numerous synthetic methods have been developed. Herein, we present a highly diastereoselective α-azidation approach to the CAMDOL-derived phosphonates, enabling ready access to 27 diverse α-azidophosphonates with defined chirality in up to 85% yield and more than 99:1 dr. Late-stage transformations through the Staudinger reaction or click reaction efficiently delivered the related pharmacological α-aminophosphonic acids or the unique α-triazolylphosphonate derivative, respectively.

A Mg(OTf)-catalyzed asymmetric Michael addition/cyclization cascade reaction between 3-isothiocyanato oxindoles and 2-arylidene-1,3-indanediones has been developed. This transformation provides an efficient and concise approach to biologically important bispiro[indanedione-oxindole-pyrrolidinyl]s under mild conditions in good to excellent yields (70-99% yields) with moderate to good stereoselectivities (up to 99% and >95:5 d.r.

Inspired by the excellent stereoinduction of palladium catalytic glycosylation with glycals via an inner-sphere pathway, a nickel-catalyzed, stereoselective -aryl glycosylation has been developed for glucals bearing a pentafluorobenzoate (PFB) group at the C3 position. The extremely electron-deficient nature of PFB not only endows stronger activity compared to the traditional leaving groups but also functions as an orientation group, presumably through the strong π-π interactions with the bipyridine ligand coordinated to the nickel center, thereby enabling the β-selective formation of a -aryl glycosidic bond with aryl iodides as glycosyl acceptors under mild conditions. This method features a broad substrate scope, high efficiency, and scalability, providing a general solution to the synthesis of challenging β--glycosides.
