New pentaerythritol tetrabromide based chiral quaternary ammonium salts have been prepared and used as organocatalysts for enantioselective Michael addition reactions between various nitroolefins and Michael donors under mild reaction conditions with very good chemical yields and ee's.

An efficient approach to the synthesis of chiral selenoureas consisting of Cinchona alkaloid scaffolds was described. The new selenoureas were assessed as bifunctional organocatalysts in the asymmetric Michael addition reactions under mild conditions. The best results were obtained for selenoureas bearing the 4-fluorophenyl group. These catalysts promoted the reactions with enantioselectivities of up to 96% ee. Additionally, the catalytic performance of the thiourea and selenourea counterpart was compared.

Organocatalyzed Michael addition reactions of 2-(arylthio)cyclobutanones with trans-β-nitrostyrenes have been carried out using a bifunctional thiourea-primary amine catalyst, providing diastereoisomerically and enantiomerically enriched 2-alkyl-2-(arylthio)cyclobutanones.

We report the ligand enabled C(sp3)–H activation/olefination of free carboxylic acids in the γ-position. Through an intramolecular Michael-addition, δ-lactones are obtained as products. Two distinct ligand classes are identified that enable the challenging palladium-catalyzed activation of free carboxylic acids in the γ-position. The developed protocol features a wide range of acid substrates and olefin reaction partners and is shown to be applicable on a preparatively useful scale. Insights into the underlying reaction mechanism obtained through kinetic studies are reported.<br>
