TL;DR: In this paper, the role of 1,2-asymmetric induction on the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones is influenced by the presence of a fluorine atom at the C 2 position.
Abstract: It is clear that the role of 1,2-asymmetric induction on the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones is influenced by the presence of a fluorine atom at the C-2 position. 2-Fluoro nitrones, synthesized by three different methods, have been subjected to the intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with ethyl vinyl ether. The stereostructures of isoxazolidines formed were determined by their conversion into 2,7-dioxa-6-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octanes. The diastereoselectivity of 2-fluoro nitrones was the reverse of that of the corresponding 2-hydro nitrones. This fact supports that the conformation with relief from the dipole repulsion between the fluorine atom and the oxygen atom of the nitrone is a preferred one for 2-fluoro nitrones, while the corresponding 2-hydro nitrones adopt the conformation with the least 1,3-allylic strain.

TL;DR: In this paper, the product was converted into the synthetic intermediate 7 of quinine alkaloids and the synthetic precursor 19 of (+)-dihydroantirhine 10.
Abstract: (4R,5R)-2-Ethoxy-5-ethyl-4-methoxycarbonylmeth yl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-pyran 3, which has been enantioselectively prepared, is converted into the cis-substituted lactone 11 by treatment with propanedithiol in the presence of boron trifluoride–diethyl ether. The product 11 is converted into the synthetic intermediate 7 of quinine alkaloids and the synthetic precursor 19 of (+)-dihydroantirhine 10.

Abstract: Total synthesis of (±)-cedranediol ( 7 ) was achieved using intramolecular double Michael reaction. Heating the enone 10 together with ZnCl 2 , Et 3 N, and TMSCl gave the tricyclo[5.2.1.0 1,5 ]decane 9 as a single diastereomer, which was converted into (±)-cedranediol ( 7 ).

TL;DR: In this article, the complete stereocontrolled synthesis of angularly disubstituted cis-decalins based on the sequenced radical ring expansion and cyclization process of α-iodomethylcyclopentanones 1 and 6 is described and the stereochemical outcome of this radical reaction is also discussed.
Abstract: The complete stereocontrolled synthesis of angularly disubstituted cis -decalins based on the sequenced radical ring expansion and cyclization process of α-iodomethylcyclopentanones 1 and 6 is described and the stereochemical outcome of this radical reaction is also discussed. The compounds 2–5 and 7–13 thus prepared could be versatile intermediates for the synthesis of biologically important compounds.

TL;DR: In this article, simple and highly effective methods for the synthesis of polycyclic ring systems via two types of intramolecular domino reactions are developed and presented, and some related reactions of these methods are described.
Abstract: Simple and highly effective methods for the synthesis of polycyclic ring systems via two types of intramolecular domino reactions are developed and presented. The first example is an intramolecular double Michael reaction, whose scope-limitation, mechanism and application to natural product synthesis are discussed. The intramolecular Michael-aldol reaction is the second case, which provides a nice method for the preparation of polycyclic compounds having a four-membered ring system. In addition, some related reactions of these methods are described.
