This survey of resorcinarene-capsule-catalyzed reactions demonstrates that HCl functions as a crucial cocatalyst by increasing the capsule's inherent Br?nsted acidity to enable or accelerate cationic reactions. The presence of HCl appears to be without consequences for other reactions.

The transfer of catalytic hydroalkoxylation reactions of olefins from homogeneous to heterogeneous conditions has been studied using two types of solid catalysts, namely montmorillonite (MMT) doped with metal cations and metal nanoparticles supported on oxides. In the case of intramolecular reactions, 38-99% yields of cyclic ethers have been obtained using Fe-MMT and Bi-MMT both in CH3NO2 and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) compared with other supported metal salts or metal nanoparticles. In the case of more challenging intermolecular reactions, conversions up to 72% and yields up to 54% were obtained with metal-doped MMT as well, such as Fe-, Bi-, and Ti-MMT. In this paper, we detail the substrate scope and limitations for both classes of reactions and tandem processes, their transposition in flow and some mechanistic insights concerning the active species, in processes identified as truly heterogeneously catalysed. As a general trend, it was observed that trisubstituted double bonds allowed the best results both in intra- and intermolecular reactions. The transfer of homogeneous catalysts onto heterogeneous ones in the case of Fe-MMT and Bi-MMT was successful and even allowed enhanced catalytic activities in the case of Bi-MMT.
Intramolecular hydroalkoxylation catalyzed inside a self-assembled cavity of an enzyme-like host structure

Self-assembled resorcin[4]arene hexamer catalyzes the intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of unsaturated alcohols to the corresponding cyclic ethers under mild conditions. The mode of catalysis and encapsulation-based substrate selectivity of the host efficiently mimic the basic principle of operation observed in enzymes.
