Herein, we report a general iminium ion-based catalytic method for the enantioselective conjugate addition of carbon-centered radicals to aliphatic and aromatic enals. The process uses an organic photoredox catalyst, which absorbs blue light to generate radicals from stable precursors, in combination with a chiral amine catalyst, which secures a consistently high level of stereoselectivity. The generality of this catalytic platform is demonstrated by the stereoselective interception of a wide variety of radicals, including non-stabilized primary ones which are generally difficult to engage in asymmetric processes. The system also served to develop organocatalytic cascade reactions that combine an iminium-ion-based radical trap with an enamine-mediated step, affording stereochemically dense chiral products in one-step.

Herein we report the palladium-catalyzed isomerization of highly substituted allylic alcohols and alkenyl alcohols by means of a single catalytic system. The operationally simple reaction protocol is applicable to a broad range of substrates and displays a wide functional group tolerance, and the products are usually isolated in high chemical yield. Experimental and computational mechanistic investigations provide complementary and converging evidence for a chain-walking process consisting of repeated migratory insertion/β-H elimination sequences. Interestingly, the catalyst does not dissociate from the substrate in the isomerization of allylic alcohols, whereas it disengages during the isomerization of alkenyl alcohols when additional substituents are present on the alkyl chain.

Depending on the nature of the substituents on the stereogenic carbon atom, the ene reaction of singlet oxygen with several chiral alkenes by confinement within thionin-supported zeolite NaY, may exhibit significant changes on facial selectivity by comparison to their photooxygenation reaction in solution. It is proposed that, apart from the conformational consequences as a result of the alkene confinement within the zeolite cavities, a synergism between Na+-π interactions and singlet oxygen-Na+ interactions plays a significant role in the transition states of ene hydroperoxidation. Within NaY, the diastereoselectivity may significantly depend on the site selectivity, as probed through specific deuterium labelling of trisubstituted alkenes bearing a gem-dimethyl group. In certain cases, a remote stereogenic centre relative to the reacting double bond may induce enhanced diastereoselection and regioselectivity.
