The development of methods for the preparation of biologically relevant compounds in an enantiomerically enriched form constitutes one of the most significant tasks in the contemporary organic chemistry. In particular, enantioselective reactions where prochiral substrates are converted into enantiomerically enriched products in the presence of chiral catalyst are of great importance. Recently, asymmetric organocatalysis, where simple organic molecules are used as catalysts of various enantiodifferentiating reactions, has become a highly useful synthetic tool enabling for the efficient asymmetric induction based on diverse activation modes. Herein, we report our studies on organocatalytic, enantioselective strategies for the synthesis of biologically relevant molecules such as: quaternary α-amino acids and their isoelectronic analogs α-aminophosphonates, benzo[1,5]oxazocines, α-methylidene-δ-lactones, α-alkylidene-ketones, furfural derivatives, and benzothiophenes. The devised approaches utilize readily available chiral organocatalysts to control stereo-chemical reaction outcomes. Operational simplicity, efficiency and high enantio- and diastereoselectivities are the main benefits of the developed strategies.

Introduction: Aza-Michael addition is an important reaction for carbon-nitrogen bond formation in synthetic organic chemistry. Expalantion: Conjugate addition of imidazole to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl/cyano compounds provides significant numbers of the biologically and synthetically interesting products, such as β-amino acids and β-lactams, which have attracted great attention for their use as key intermediates of anticancer agents, antibiotics and other drugs. Conclusion: This review addresses most significant method for the synthesis of N-substituted imidazole derivatives following Michael addition reaction of imidazole to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl/cyano compounds using ionic liquid/base/acid/enzyme as catalysts from year 2007-2017.

Absolute Reliability

The sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange reaction (SuFEx), developed by Sharpless and co-workers in 2014, is a new category of click reaction that creates molecular connections with absolute reliability and unprecedented efficiency through a sulfur(VI) hub. Ethenesulfonyl fluoride (ESF), as one of the most important sulfur(VI) hubs, exhibits extraordinary reactivity in SuFEx click chemistry and organic synthesis. This review summarizes the chemical properties and applications of ESF in click chemistry, organic chemistry, materials science, medicinal chemistry and in many other fields related to organic synthesis.1 Introduction2 Chemical Transformations of ESF3 Chemical Transformations of 2-Arylethenesulfonyl Fluorides4 Novel SuFEx Reagents Derived from ESF5 Applications of ESF Derivatives in Medicinal Chemistry6 Applications of ESF Derivatives in Materials Science7 Conclusion

The oxidative cyclization of β-substituted β,γ-unsaturated carboxylic acids using a hypervalent iodine reagent to provide 4-substituted furan-2-one products, is reported. In this cyclization, the use of a highly electrophilic PhI(OTf)2, which is in situ prepared from PhI(OAc)2 and Me3SiOTf, is crucial. Depending on the substitution pattern at the α-position of the substrates, furan-2(5H)-ones or furan-2(3H)-ones are produced. Thus, the present method offers a useful tool for accessing various types of 4-substituted furan-2-ones that are important structural motifs in the field of organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry.
