Article Abstract
Two methods, designed primarily for applications in diversity-oriented synthesis (DOS), are introduced. The first is a Cu-H-catalyzed multicomponent process that involves a nitrile and a trisubstituted allenyl boronate. The first set of products are homoallylic α-secondary NH-amines, containing a trisubstituted alkenyl boronate, formed with >98% enantiospecificity, in up to >98:2 dr and as a single alkene isomer (>98% ). The second method is efficient and diastereoselective triflic anhydride-mediated conversion of an unsaturated azapane-amide, generated from modification of the products of the foregoing catalytic process to azabicyclooctanes (ABCOs). The ABCOs contain a bridged enamine moiety and a trisubstituted alkene, which can be functionalized chemo- and stereoselectively. Accordingly, natural product-like rigid bicyclic frameworks can be obtained wherein four different fragments can be installed in space in a controllable fashion.

Glycomimetics, structural mimics of natural carbohydrates such as C-glycosides and carbasugars, are important therapeutic leads for treating a variety of diseases. However, the structural and stereochemical complexity of glycomimetics poses daunting challenges to synthetic chemists and is incompatible with diversity-oriented synthetic approaches. Herein, we develop a facile and general method for the stereoselective synthesis of C-acyl glycosides and carbasugars from readily accessible and stable 1-deoxyglycosides via photo-HAT/nickel dual catalysis.

The photocage, an advanced platform for drug delivery and photoactivation imaging, has attracted wide attention in biomedicine. Despite recent advancements in shifting irradiation wavelengths to visible and near-infrared light, improving photolysis quantum yield and the corresponding uncaging cross section, key parameters for efficient photocages, remains highly challenging. Here, we address this challenge by introducing light-controlled COO-B bond cleavage from tetracoordinate boron linked to dipyrrin, aryl, and carboxylic acid groups.

The development of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) materials requires precisely engineered molecular architectures with tailored optoelectronic properties. Here, we present a strategy that synergistically integrates diversity-oriented synthesis (DOS) with virtual screening to systematically explore the chemical space of diaza-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (diaza-PAHs) for OLED applications. DOS, originally developed for drug discovery, serves as a powerful tool to generate structurally diverse molecular libraries, granting access to previously unexplored diaza-PAHs with potential OLED functionality.

Enzymatic multicomponent C-C bond forming reactions for diversity-oriented synthesis remain rare. Using cooperative photobiocatalysis, we developed a stereoselective three-component radical-mediated C-C coupling unknown in both organic chemistry and biochemistry. Directed evolution of repurposed pyridoxal decarboxylases enabled full fragment variability in this three-component coupling, giving rise to six classes of valuable products, many of which were inaccessible by other methods, even in a racemic fashion.
