Electrochemistry offers opportunities to promote single-electron transfer (SET) redox-neutral chemistries similar those recently discovered using visible-light photocatalysis but without the use of an expensive photocatalyst. Herein, we introduce a microfluidic electrochemistry (μRN-eChem) platform that has broad applicability SET chemistry, including radical-radical cross-coupling, Minisci-type reactions, and nickel-catalyzed C(sp2)-O cross-coupling. The cathode anode simultaneously...

Using a mechanically guided ligand design approach, new (SEGFAST) for the CuH-catalyzed hydroamination reaction of unactivated terminal olefins has been developed, providing 62-fold rate increase over reactions compared to DTBM-SEGPHOS, previous optimal ligand. Combining respective strengths computational chemistry and experimental kinetic measurements, we were able quickly identify potential modifications that lead more effective ligands, thus avoiding synthesizing testing large library...

Aplysiasecosterol A (1) is a structurally unusual 9,11-secosteroid isolated from the sea hare Aplysia kurodai. We have accomplished first and asymmetric total synthesis of 1 in convergent fashion. The left-hand segment bearing three adjacent stereocenters was constructed through desymmetrizing reduction, ketalization, radical cyclization. strategy 2-bromoallylation followed by spontaneous lactolization enabled more expeditious access to this segment. right-hand prepared two different...

With recent advances in the computer-aided synthesis planning (CASP) powered by data science and machine learning, modern CASP programs can rapidly identify thousands of potential pathways for a given target molecule. However, lack holistic pathway evaluation mechanism makes it challenging to systematically prioritize strategic except using some simple heuristics. Herein, we introduce data-driven approach evaluate relative levels retrosynthesis dynamic tree-structured long short-term memory...

The first total syntheses of aflavazole (6) and 14-hydroxyaflavinine (8), two sterically congested indole diterpenoids, were accomplished. AlI3-promoted alkyne Prins cyclization was exploited to construct their key structural motifs. An electrocyclization-aromatization sequence assembled the pentasubstituted arene 6, a Stille-Migita coupling furnished tetrasubstituted olefin 8. benzylic allylic C-O bonds reductively cleaved at late stage syntheses, respectively.

The total synthesis of epoxyeujindole A, a structurally unusual indole diterpenoid isolated from Eupenicillium javanicum, has been accomplished for the first time. features late-stage cationic cyclization strategy, which took advantage an electron-rich olefinic substrate. CDE ring system was assembled via enantioselective conjugate addition/alkylation, Luche cyclization, and Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi reaction. heavily substituted A constructed through Suzuki-Miyaura coupling bridged fused B formed Prins

Here we report the first and concise total synthesis of a complex ophiobolin-derived sesterterpene, bipolarolide D, which hinges on two strategic applications pentafulvene: (1) enantioselective pentafulvene-involved [6+2] cycloaddition; (2) regioselective diastereoselective Heck cyclization. Late-stage selective allylic addition to ketone moiety facilitates successful installation side chain. This strategy enabled accomplishment its through modular approach. will facilitate investigation...

Arenes with β-stereogenic centers are important substructures in pharmaceuticals and natural products. We have developed an asymmetric anti-Markovnikov hydroarylation of 1,1-disubstituted olefins by dual palladium copper hydride catalysis as a convenient general approach to access these substructures. This efficient one-step process addresses several limitations the traditional stepwise approaches. The use cesium benzoate base common phosphine ligand for both Cu- Pd-catalyzed processes were...
