Summary: The combination of Ni-catalyst and PPh3 promotes a three-component coupling reaction of vinyl epoxide, alkyne, and dimethylzinc under a carbon dioxide atmosphere, leading to the formation of 2,5-heptadienyl alcohols with excellent E-stereoselectivity. The stereochemistry of the products is controlled through the formation of an oxanickelacycle intermediate via the insertion of carbon dioxide.

Summary: The transition-metal-catalysed cross-coupling reaction has been widely used to construct carbon-carbon/heteroatom bonds. However, the development of heteroatom-heteroatom cross-couplings has been challenging. In this study, a new strategy using single-electron reductive elimination under Cu catalysis was demonstrated for enantioselective S-O coupling. This reaction showed its synthetic potential in preparing chiral alcohols, utilizing biomass-derived feedstock glycerol, and catalytic 4,6-desymmetrization of inositol. These results highlight the potential of enantioselective radical heteroatomic cross-coupling as a general chiral heteroatom-heteroatom bond formation strategy.

Summary: The process of hydrogen bond donor promoting the cycloaddition reaction of epoxides with CO2 provides a green access to highly valuable cyclocarbonate derivatives. However, hydrogen bond donor has limitations including poor biocompatibility and narrow substrate scope. Our group discovered that folic acid can enhance the coupling reaction of epoxides and CO2 through hydrogen bonding. Various cyclocarbonate derivatives were synthesized in good to high yields with the assistance of folic acid and TBAB. Additionally, benzoic acids and 2,4-quinazoline dione were synthesized in the presence of CuCl2/folic acid and PdCl2/folic acid, respectively. The reaction mechanism was proposed based on previous reports and control experiments.

Summary: This study reports a Cs2CO3-promoted cross-coupling reaction of arenes with cyano-/nitro-substituted aryl halides in DMSO to afford biaryls in the absence of ligands. The cyano/nitro groups in biaryls are shown to be useful for further transformations. Additionally, the formation of dibenzofurans from reactions between arenes and 1-bromo-2-iodobenzene is reported. A radical mechanism for the formation of biaryls is proposed based on control experiments and theoretical studies.

Summary: A visible-light-induced oxidative coupling reaction of arylboronic acids for the synthesis of biaryls has been developed. The reaction utilizes polydentate hydrazones as a bifunctional catalyst and proceeds smoothly at room temperature. It is compatible with a wide range of functional groups. The study of UV-Vis spectrum shows that hydrazone and its complex with CuI exhibit major absorptions upon visible-light, indicating the dual role of hydrazone as both ligand and photocatalyst in this reaction.

Summary: This study explored the use of H2S and HSiSH as alternative hydrogen sources for COx hydrogenation reactions. While H2S was found to be kinetically infeasible for transferring hydrogen to COx at low temperatures, HSiSH successfully activated CO2 to produce the final product HCOOH through C-end and O-end activations of CO2. This finding demonstrates the potential of utilizing indirect hydrogen sources with silicon incorporation for CO2 hydrogenation reactions.

Summary: This study presents the design and synthesis of sulfated disaccharide inhibitors based on IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S), which showed potent inhibition of Sulf-2. The results suggest that IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S) is the shortest fragment size required for effective inhibition of Sulfs, and a trisulfated disaccharide is identified as the minimal fragment size of heparan sulfate for effective endosulfatase inhibition.

Summary: The self-adaptability of galvanostatic electrolysis was found to be helpful in a multistage chemo- and diastereoselective electrochemically promoted cyclodimerization of chalcones. Through a series of reductive events, densely functionalized cyclopentanes with five contiguous stereocenters were obtained (25 examples, yields up to 95%, dr values up to >20:1). Further experimental and electrochemical investigations indicated the crucial role of dynamic kinetic resolution of the aldol intermediate in the reaction mechanism.

Summary: In this study, the synthesis of functionalized benzo[a]phenazines and indazolo[2,3-a]quinolines was achieved through Rh(III)-catalyzed oxidative annulation of 2-arylquinoxalines and 2-aryl-2H-indazoles with allyl alcohols. The method showed a wide substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance, good to high yields of annulated products, and the capability for scaled-up synthesis. A tentative mechanism of the annulation reaction was proposed based on a preliminary mechanistic investigation.
