Nickel-Catalyzed Regioselective [2+2+2] Cycloaddition of Carboryne with Alkynes†
TL;DR: This work furnishes a novel method for the preparation of highly substituted benzocarboranes which are difficult to obtain by other methods, and achieves a high regioselectivity in the reactions involving unsymmetrical alkynes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly Enantioselective [3+2] Annulation of Indoles with Quinones to Access Structurally Diverse Benzofuroindolines
TL;DR: A facile and efficient method to produce optically pure benzofuroindolines, especially those without 3-substituents that are susceptible to rearomatization, through [3+2] annulation of indoles with quinones is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The diborene 1 was synthesized by reduction of a mixture of 1,2-di-9-anthryl-1, 2-dibromodiborane(4) and trimethylphosphine with potassium graphite and showed a twisted conformation that allows for intercalation of the relatively high-lying π(B=B) orbital and the low-lyingπ* orbital of the anthryl moiety with no significant conjugation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regioselective insertion of carborynes into ethereal C-H bond: facile synthesis of α-carboranylated ethers.
TL;DR: This work has presented a new methodology for the generation of a series of functionalized carboranes bearing alkoxy units, affording α-carboranylated ethers in excellent regioselectivity at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synergetic Tandem Enantiomeric Enrichment in Catalytic Asymmetric Multi-Component Reactions (AMCRs): Highly Enantioselective Construction of Tetracyclic Indolines with Four Continuous Stereocenters
TL;DR: In this article, an efficient three-component formal [2 + 2 + + 2] cycloaddition reaction between indoles, 2,3-dihydropyran, and methylene malonates was reported for rapid construction of optically active tetracyclic indolines bearing four continuous stereocenters.
