Abstract
This review covers work published in the calendar year 2012. References to new, naturally occurring furans, dihydrofurans, and tetrahydrofurans are given. New methods for the ring synthesis of furans, dihydrofurans, and tetrahydrofurans, and benzofurans are discussed. Novel reaction chemistry of furans, dihydrofurans, and tetrahydrofurans, and benzofurans is covered.

Highly Z- and Enantioselective Ring-Opening/Cross-Metathesis Reactions Catalyzed by Stereogenic-at-Mo Adamantylimido Complexes

TL;DR: The first highly Z- and enantioselective class of ring-opening/cross-metathesis reactions is presented and the desired chiral pyrans obtained bear a Z olefin either exclusively (>98:<2 Z/E) or predominantly (>or=87:13 Z/ E).

Highly efficient reduction of unactivated aryl and alkyl iodides by a ground-state neutral organic electron donor

TL;DR: The reducing agent 1 is formed in two steps from N-methylbenzimidazole using very simple chemistry, and subsequent treatment of the iodoalkane or -arene with 1 affords cyclized products

Stereoselective Bromofunctionalization of Alkenes

TL;DR: This account will provide an insight into the group's approach in tackling the challenges in enantioselective bromocyclization of alkenes as well as the development of diastereoselectives N-bromosuccinimide-initiated multicomponent reactions.

Combined Oxypalladation/C-H Functionalization: Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Intramolecular Oxidative Oxyarylation of Hydroxyalkenes

TL;DR: In this article, a simple Pd(II)-catalyzed method for the catalytic oxidative oxypalladation/arylation of unactivated hydroxyalkenes was proposed.

Enantioselective organo-cascade catalysis.

TL;DR: These new cascade catalysis protocols allow the invention of enantioselective transformations that were previously unknown, including the asymmetric catalytic addition of the elements of HF across a trisubstituted olefin.
