Intramolecular hydroarylationviaC-H activation is one of the most powerful methods to synthesize carbo- and heterocyclic compounds, whereas we still have room for developing a highly enantioselective variant of the reaction. Here we describe Ir-catalyzed enantioselective intramolecular hydroarylation ofm-allyloxyphenyl ketones. The enantioselective cyclization was efficiently catalyzed by a cationic iridium complex coordinated with a conventional chiral bisphosphine ligand to give benzofurans in high yields with high enantioselectivity. A carbonyl group of ketones functioned as an effective directing group for the C-H activation. In terms of synthetic utility, we also achieved one-pot synthesis of chiral 3-substituted dihydrobenzofurans from readily available allylic carbonates andm-hydroxyacetophenonesviasequential Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution and Ir-catalyzed intramolecular hydroarylation.

A straightforward synthesis of α-substituted acrylonitriles is described using 4-cyano-3-oxotetrahydro-thiophene (c-THT) as an acrylonitrile surrogate. This unprecedented two-step sequence featuring a palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation (Pd-AA) and a retro-Dieckmann fragmentation provides a general entry into diversely substituted 1,4-dienes.

We discovered an effective and simple system (Pd/BQ/air/r.t.) for making allylic alcohols through Pd-catalyzed allylic C-H bond functionalization. This approach exhibits advantages due to its simple operation, mild conditions, and environmentally benign features. By modifying reaction conditions, it can be suitable for preparing unsaturated aldehydes, allylic esters, ethers, and amines.
