- Highly Regio-, Diastereo-, and Enantioselective Synthesis of Tetrahydroazepines and Benzo[b]oxepines through Palladium-Catalyzed [4+3] Cycloaddition Reactions
-
A novel Pd0-catalyzed asymmetric [4+3] annulation reaction of two readily accessible starting materials has been developed for building seven-membered heterocyclic architectures. The potential [3+2] side pathway could be suppressed though fine tuning of the conditions. A broad scope of cycloaddition donors and acceptors participated in the transformation with excellent chemo-, regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivtities, leading to valuable tetrahydroazepines and benzo[b]oxepines.

- Enantioselective γ-Addition-Driven Cascade of β,γ-Unsaturated Ketones by Ion-Pair Catalysis: Access to Chiral 1,3-Dioxolochroman Scaffolds
-
A highly enantioselective γ-addition-driven cascade of β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds by bifunctional ion-pair catalysis has been developed. With this protocol, a range of functionalized chiral 1,3-dioxolochroman derivatives were prepared in high yields with superior stereoselectivities (>99% ee and >20:1 dr). The utility of this method was demonstrated by one-pot synthesis, scaled-up preparation, and facile transformation. Moreover, mechanistic investigations provided insights into the reaction pathway and the origin of chiral induction.
