Article Abstract
An iridium-catalyzed trifluoroacetic acid-promoted asymmetric cascade allylation/Pictet-Spengler cyclization reaction of azomethine ylides with aromatic allylic alcohols is reported. This protocol provides a facile and scalable method for the construction of 1,3,4-trisubstituted tetrahydroisoquinolines containing two stereogenic centers in good yields (up to 96%) with generally excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to >20:1 dr and >99% ee). Furthermore, a series of aromatic heterocycle-fused piperidines were also obtained with excellent enantiocontrol by this methodology.

Harnessing the significant buildup of lactic acid (LA) within the tumor microenvironment (TME) for metabolic manipulation presents a promising avenue for cancer treatment. Nevertheless, single-agent therapies often fail to address the complex and varying needs of TME heterogeneity, posing a substantial scientific hurdle in oncology. In this context, we employ asymmetric mesoporous silica nanoparticles (AMS NPs) as delivery vehicles, simultaneously loading them with zinc‑cobalt‑manganese ferrite nanoparticles (ZCMF NPs), lactate oxidase (LOX), and doxorubicin (DOX).

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.

A three-step, one-pot, sequential cascade starting from simple feedstocks to increase complexity toward value-added chiral synthetic building blocks is reported. This is achieved by precisely integrating organic photocatalysis and noncovalent organocatalysis, often operating at dissimilar conditions and reaction media. In particular, this strategy is used to enable the direct transformation of readily available benzylic substrates, such as methylbenzenes, benzyl alcohols, or amines, into enantioenriched α-aminonitriles by benzylic CH photooxidation to their corresponding aldehydes, followed by in situ imine formation and final asymmetric organocatalytic Strecker reaction.

Chronic periodontitis, a frequent complication of diabetes, is exacerbated by bacterial biofilms that drive progressive periodontal tissue destruction and systemic inflammation. Conventional treatments, utilizing mechanical debridement and systemic antibiotics, often fail to eradicate bacterial biofilms, promote antibiotic resistance, and lack real-time monitoring, leading to suboptimal therapeutic outcomes. Herein, we report a separable bilayer microneedle (MN) patch that enables localized, antibiotic-free, biofilm-targeted therapy and in situ biomarker-based monitoring for the integrated management of chronic periodontitis.

Asymmetric organo-metal combined catalysis, which integrates the catalytic functions of chiral organocatalysts and metal complexes, enables the enantioselective formation of challenging chemical bonds and facilitates cascade transformations, often without the need for intermediate purification. Since its inception in 2001, this paradigm has evolved into a versatile strategy for the rapid construction of molecular complexity with a high level of enantioselectivity. In this Outlook, we have highlighted the most recent contributions to this field, showcasing exciting opportunities to overcome current efficiency limits.
