Article Abstract

A palladium-catalyzed ring-opening oxo-formal [3 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction of novel donor-acceptor spirovinylcyclopropyl oxindole with 3-oxindole is described. The developed protocol provides facile access to oxo-bispirooxindole derivatives in good yields (up to 82% yield) with excellent diastereoselectivities (up to 20:1 dr).

We report a catalytic enantioselective total synthesis of an endocyclic alkene regioisomer of (-)-peduncularine, termed (-)-pseudo-peduncularine, and also a synthesis of its C7 epimer. Highlights of the syntheses include a new strategy for the construction of the peduncularine framework by palladium-catalyzed ynamide cycloisomerization/enamide reduction, which could be performed on a multigram scale. By introducing the indole side chain as a substituent on the ynamide, this approach contrasts with previous strategies that have relied on late-stage Fischer indole synthesis.

A palladium-catalyzed three-component coupling of 2-arylaziridines, α-diazo esters, and cyclic ethers, affording tertiary enamides with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity, is reported. This regioselective ring-opening of aziridines is different from the classical transition-metal/phosphine catalyzed ones. A broad spectrum of substrates is tolerated (up to 33 examples).

Total Synthesis of (+)-Ansatrienol K.

The first total synthesis of ansatrienol K, a novel trienomycin congener featuring a diene moiety within its 19-membered macrolactam ring, is reported. Key steps include two sequential palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions for constructing the trisubstituted benzene ring and two distinct strategies for assembling the C6-C18 fragment. A Co(CO)-catalyzed carbonylative epoxide ring-opening provided the diene fragment, while late-stage Stewart-Grubbs catalyst-mediated diene-ene ring-closing metathesis (RCM) enabled efficient macrocyclization.

We report an efficient palladium-catalyzed ring-opening defluorinative Hiyama cross-coupling of -difluorocyclopropanes with structurally diverse (hetero)arylsilanes through C-C bond activation and C-F bond cleavage. This regioselective ring-opening defluorinative Hiyama cross-coupling features a broad substrate scope with excellent functional group compatibility, affording a diverse variety of linear 2-fluoroallylic scaffolds in good yields with high -selectivity.

Palladium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Ring-Opening/Cyanation of Cyclobutanones.

Org Lett

Key Laboratory of Synthetic and Nature Molecule Chemistry of Ministry of Education, Department of Chemistry & Materials Science, Northwest University, Xi'an 710127, China.

Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric transformations involving cyanide anions remain a challenge due to the strong affinity between cyanide anions and palladium, which induces alterations in the coordination sphere of the palladium center. Herein, palladium-catalyzed enantioselective cyanation is achieved via a ring-opening/cross-coupling process between aryl halide-tethered cyclobutanones and Zn(CN). This reaction is demonstrated to exhibit broad substrate scope and robust enantioselectivity.
