TL;DR: In this article, a general strategy for the synthesis of highly substituted polycyclic aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds was developed, which is achieved simply by the irradiation of a dichloroethane solution of an acetylene derivative and a vinyl or aryl α-diazo ketone.
Abstract: A general strategy for the synthesis of highly substituted polycyclic aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds has been developed. The new aromatic annulation is achieved simply by the irradiation of a dichloroethane solution of an acetylene derivative and a vinyl or aryl α-diazo ketone. Mechanistically, the reaction proceeds via the photochemical Wolff rearrangement of the diazo ketone to generate an aryl- or vinylketene, followed by a cascade of three pericyclic reactions. A variety of substituted phenols, naphthalenes, benzofurans, benzothiophenes, indoles, and carbazoles can be prepared by using the method

TL;DR: In this paper, the cycloadditive strategy complements existing asymmetric aldol routes to such functional groups, such as β,γ-dihydroxy ketones, alcohols, and 1,2-and 1,3-diols.
Abstract: Syntheses of the three title natural products are used to illustrate that optically pure isoxazolines can be transformed into a wide variety of functional groups including β,γ-dihydroxy ketones, alcohols, 1,2- and 1,3-diols, 1,3,4-triols, 1,3-amino alcohols, and 1,3,4-amino diols. It is suggested that this cycloadditive strategy complements existing asymmetric aldol routes to such functionality

TL;DR: In this article, catalytic quantities of Rh(PPh 3 ) 3 Cl greatly accelerate the 1,4-addition process, effecting conjugate reduction of these substrates by catecholborane at -20°C.
Abstract: α,β-Unsaturated ketones which can readily adopt an s-cis conformation undergo conjugate reduction by catecholborane at room temperature. α,β-Unsaturated imides, esters, and amides are unreactive under the same conditions. However, catalytic quantities of Rh(PPh 3 ) 3 Cl greatly accelerate the 1,4-addition process, effecting conjugate reduction of these substrates by catecholborane at -20°C. The resulting boron enolates may be reacted with electrophiles to provide functionalized products

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The carbocyclic nucleosides (−)-aristeromycin and (−)-neplanocin A were made enantiospecifically in nine steps and ten steps, respectively, from D-ribonic acid γ-lactone.
Abstract: The carbocyclic nucleosides (−)-aristeromycin and (−)-neplanocin A were made enantiospecifically in nine steps and ten steps, respectively, from D-ribonic acid γ-lactone. Quenching of an organocuprate conjugate addition reaction with either acetic acid or methanesulfinyl chloride determines whether the divergent synthetic route branches toward (−)-aristeromycin or (−)-neplanocin A

TL;DR: In this article, the reaction of 1 with cyclic and acyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and α-nitro olefins in the presence of TiCl 4 to give the corresponding conjugate propargylation products was described.
Abstract: Stannylallenes (1) reacted with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and α-nitro olefins in the presence of TiCl 4 to give the corresponding conjugate propargylation products. Thus, the reaction of 1 with cyclic and acyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (2) gave β-propargylic ketones (3) in high yields. With α-nitro olefins (4), two types of products, β-propargylic nitroalkanes (5) and α-propargylic ketones (6), were obtained selectively depending on the presence or absence of the α-substituent of 4. Transformations of the products (6) to cyclopentenone derivatives are also described
