TL;DR: In this article, the Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation and conjugated addition of acetonides to the respective unsaturated ketones were used to obtain exo-isobrevicomin (1) and exobrevicomin (2).
Abstract: (-)-exo-Isobrevicomin (1) and (+)-exo-brevicomin (2) are volatile substances produced by males of the beetles Dendroctonus ponderosae, which inhabit pine trees found in the northern hemisphere, frequently causing the death of their host. In order to obtain these aggregation pheromones, which present the 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane structure, the synthetic strategies utilized in this work had as key steps the Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation and the conjugated addition, promoted by the Zn(Cu) couple in aqueous medium and accelerated by ultrasound. The conjugated addition of acetonides 13 and 14 to the respective unsaturated ketones (methyl vinyl ketone and ethyl vinyl ketone) furnished the adducts 15 and 16. The intramolecular catalyzed cyclization of compounds 15 and 16 with phosphotungstic acid (H3PW12O40) produced exo-isobrevicomin (1) and exo-brevicomin (2).

TL;DR: The Michael addition of a β,β-dimethyl substituted silyl ketene acetal [Me2CC(OMe)OSiMe3] to α-β-unsaturated ketones, namely, 2-cyclopentenone, 2cyclohexenone and isophorone, methyl vinyl ketone and mesityl oxide occurs smoothly in the presence of the nucleophilic catalyst, tetra-n-butyl ammonium bibenzoate (TBABB) in THF giving the corresponding 1,4

TL;DR: In this paper, a 6-endo-oxypalladation of the triple bond is followed by a C-C coupling to give structurally diverse isochromenimines and related heterosubstituted derivatives, in which the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl moiety is incorporated as an alkyl-type exocyclic side chain.
