Isocyanides have long been known as versatile chemical reagents in organic synthesis. Their ambivalent nature also allows them to function as a CO-substitute in palladium-catalyzed cross couplings. Over the past decades, isocyanides have emerged as practical and versatile C1 building blocks, whose inherent N-substitution allows for the rapid incorporation of nitrogeneous fragments in a wide variety of products. Recent developments in palladium catalyzed isocyanide insertion reactions have significantly expanded the scope and applicability of these imidoylative cross-couplings. This review highlights the advances made in this field over the past eight years.

New Strategies

Carbonyl-olefin metathesis is a potentially powerful yet underexplored reaction in organic synthesis. In recent years, however, this situation has begun to change, most notably with the introduction of several different catalytic technologies. The development of one of those new strategies, based on hydrazine catalysts and a novel [3+2] paradigm for double bond metathesis, is discussed herein. First, the stage is set with a description of some potential applications of carbonyl-olefin metathesis and a discussion of alternative strategies for this intriguing reaction.1 Introduction2 Potential Applications of Carbonyl-Olefin Metathesis3 Carbonyl-Olefin Metathesis Strategies4 Direct (Type I): Non-Catalytic5 Direct (Type I): Acid-Catalyzed6 Indirect (Type II): Metal Alkylidenes7 Indirect (Type III): Hydrazine-Catalyzed8 Conclusion

Recent Developments

The carbonyl–olefin metathesis reaction has become increasingly important in organic synthesis due to its versatility in functional group interconversion chemistry. Recent developments in the field have identified a number of transition-metal and organic Lewis acids as effective catalysts for this reaction. Herein, we report the use of simple organic compounds such as N-iodosuccinimide or iodine monochloride to catalyze the carbonyl–olefin metathesis process under mild reaction conditions. This work broadens the scope of this chemical transformation to include iodonium sources as simple and practical catalysts.

AbstractThis review summarizes the history and recent developments of the field of organometallic chemical biology with a particular emphasis on the development of novel bioconjugation approaches. Over the years, numerous transformations have emerged for biomolecule modification with the use of organometallic reagents; these include [3+2] cycloadditions, C–C, C–S, C–N, and C–O bond forming processes, as well as metal-mediated deprotection (“decaging”) reactions. These conceptually new additions to the chemical biology toolkit highlight the potential of organometallic chemistry to make a significant impact in the field of chemical biology by providing further opportunities for the development of chemoselective, site-specific and spatially resolved methods for biomolecule structure and function manipulation. Examples of these transformations, as well as existing challenges and future prospects of this rapidly developing field are highlighted in this review.

Allyl Sulfides

Olefin metathesis has emerged as a powerful tool in organic synthesis. The activating effect of an allylic hydroxy group in metathesis has been known for more than 10 years, and many organic chemists have taken advantage of this positive influence for efficient synthesis of natural products. Recently, the discovery of the rate enhancement by allyl sulfides in aqueous cross-metathesis has allowed the first examples of such a reaction on proteins. This led to a new benchmark in substrate complexity for cross-metathesis and expanded the potential of olefin metathesis for other applications in chemical biology. The enhanced reactivity of allyl sulfide, along with earlier reports of a similar effect by allylic hydroxy groups, suggests that allyl chalcogens generally play an important role in modulating the rate of olefin metathesis. In this review, we discuss the effect of allylic chalcogens in olefin metathesis and highlight its most recent applications in synthetic chemistry and protein modifications.

The use of proline-based organocatalysts has acquired significant importance in organic synthesis, especially in enantioselective synthesis. Proline and its derivatives are proven to be quite effective chiral organocatalysts for a variety of transformations including the aldol reaction, which is considered as one of the important C-C bond forming reactions in organic synthesis. The use of chiral organocatalysts has several advantages over its metal-mediated analogues. Subsequently, a large number of highly efficient proline-based organocatalysts including polymer-supported chiral analogues have been identified for aldol reaction. The use of polymer-supported organocatalysts exhibited remarkable stability under the reaction conditions and offered the best results particularly in terms of its recyclability and reusability. These potential benefits along with its economic and green chemistry advantages have led to the search for many polymer-supported proline catalysts. In this review, recent developments in exploring various polymer immobilized proline-based chiral organocatalysts for asymmetric aldol reactions are described.
