Article Abstract
A photoinduced copper-catalyzed enantioconvergent remote alkynylation of -hydroxyphthalimide esters with terminal alkynes via 1,4-heteroaryl migration has been developed. A broad scope of heteroaryl-tethered chiral alkynes has been synthesized with good regio- and enantioselectivities. The chiral-ligand-coordinated copper species plays a dual role as both the photoredox and cross-coupling catalyst. This methodology provides a new platform for enantioconvergent remote alkynylations.

The use of hydrazones as carbanion equivalents for carbon-carbon bond formation reactions has emerged as a versatile tool for organic synthesis. However, the enantioselective formation of carbon-carbon bonds with hydrazones has been underdeveloped. We have developed a Ru-catalyzed enantioconvergent hydrobenzylation of racemic allylic alcohols using aryl hydrazones as latent alkyl nucleophiles.

Compared to the widely explored enol silanes, the applicability of their extended variants especially as bisvinylogous nucleophiles in enantioselective catalysis has been sparse. Herein, we describe the first enantioselective vinylogous and bisvinylogous allenylic substitution using silyl dienol and trienol ethers, respectively, as a nucleophile. With racemic allenylic alcohols as the electrophile, these enantioconvergent reactions are cooperatively catalyzed by an Ir(I)/(phosphoramidite,olefin) complex and Lewis acidic La(OTf) and display remarkable regio- and diastereoselectivity in most cases.

Asymmetric catalytic versions of electricity-driven processes hold immense potential for the sustainable preparation of chiral compounds. However, the involvement of anodic oxidative cross-dehydrogenative coupling events between two distinct nucleophiles makes it challenging for a chiral catalyst to regulate the stereochemistry of the products. Our current electrocatalytic strategy for enantioconvergent cross-dehydrogenative α- and γ-nitroalkylation via radical-based pathways produces an array of enantioenriched nitroesters without supplementary stoichiometric oxidants.

An organocatalytic enantioconvergent synthesis of chiral tetrasubstituted allenes is disclosed. With suitable chiral phosphoric acid catalysts, a range of racemic indole-substituted propargylic alcohols reacted with nucleophiles to provide efficient access to a series of enantioenriched allenes with high enantioselectivities. Control experiments suggested a mechanism involving remotely controlled asymmetric 1,8-addition of the in situ generated indole imine methide via a bifunctional transition state.
