An N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed highly enantioselective [3 + 3] annulation reaction of N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) 3,3-disubstituted acrylates and N-Ts ketimines was developed. In most cases, the desired chiral dihydropyridinone products bearing an all carbon quaternary stereogenic center could be obtained in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities (>99% ee's), which demonstrated the NHPI acrylates as a kind of excellent substrate in NHC-catalysis.

The synergistic combination of N-heterocyclic carbene organocatalysis and transition-metal catalysis for a formal [3 + 2] annulation between 3-substituted but-2-enoates and 1-tosyl-2-vinylaziridine was developed. This cooperative strategy provides a facile and efficient access to various functionalized (E)-3-ethylidene-4-vinylpyrrolidin-2-ones in a regioselective and stereoselective manner. The preliminary asymmetric studies were also performed, which indicated a potential for enantioselective annulation of vinyl enolate intermediates with transition-metal-π-allyl species.

A carbene-catalyzed ester activation reaction for the synthesis of multi-substituted benzenes is developed. Tetra-substituted benzene compounds are efficiently synthesized through this methodology. Compared with aldehyde substrates used in previous reports, the ester substrates used here are much more readily available and inexpensive. In addition, the TEMPO oxidant used here is more inexpensive than the quinones commonly used in related carbene-catalyzed reactions.
