Summary: In this study, an efficient one-pot strategy for the stereodivergent asymmetric synthesis of various P-atropisomeric Si-stereogenic monohydrosilanes with excellent stereoselectivity was developed. This method provides an effective platform for the synthesis of enantioenriched phosphine-based silicon-stereogenic monohydrosilanes, which could have potential applications in asymmetric catalysis.

Summary: Silicon-stereogenic monohydrosilanes have broad applications, but their combination with phosphines is rare. In this study, an efficient one-pot strategy was developed for the asymmetric synthesis of P-atropisomeric Si-stereogenic monohydrosilanes, which have potential applications in asymmetric catalysis.

Summary: A series of chiral palladium(II) allyl and cinnamyl complexes bearing a C-1-symmetric N-heterocyclic carbene were synthesized from achiral precursors. The chirality of these complexes is a result of the carbene-palladium bond formation, enabling the resolution of racemic complexes with high enantiopurities. Their configuration stabilities and catalytic performance were investigated through crystal X-ray diffraction and intramolecular alpha-arylation of amides, showing moderate chiral induction.

Summary: The authors present a metal-free oxidative cross-coupling reaction between isoquinolines and 2-naphthols to efficiently access the QUINOL scaffolds. This approach addresses the challenge of high production costs and limited synthetic methods, providing a new strategy for asymmetric catalysis. The study demonstrates the significance of QUINOL as a key platform molecule for the development of chiral ligands and catalysts in asymmetric catalysis.

Summary: A chemoenzymatic methodology was described to access all four possible stereoisomers of 2,3-dimethylglyceric acid ethyl ester. The procedure involved the use of racemic ethyl alpha-acetolactate as the starting material, followed by selective reductions and acetylation to separate the major stereoisomers. Overall, the conversion of racemic alpha-acetolactate into enantiopure stereoisomers achieved yields of 42% for (2R,3S), 40% for (2S,3S), 42% for (2S,3R), and 20% for (2R,3R).

Summary: This study investigated the synthesis of fluorescein-diacrylate (FL-DA) and four-functional fluoresceins (FL) through the Michael addition of secondary amines to FL-DA. FL-DA was successfully synthesized at a scale of 100 g. Diallyl amine (DAA) rapidly reacted with FL-DA, while diethanolamine (DEA) had a longer reaction time and was unstable. The addition reactions of aminodiols with longer carbon chains and diethyl-amino-diacetate (DIDA) were slower but could be accelerated using Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) as a biocatalyst. The structure of tetrafunctional fluoresceins was confirmed by 13C and 1H NMR, and high resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS) demonstrated the formation of highly pure tetraallyl- and tetraethylacetate-fluoresceins. These multifunctional fluoresceins show promise for the synthesis of imaging agents for various applications.

Summary: Bis-aryl carbazole borane derivatives with emissive properties and axial chirality were synthesized. The resolution of a thermally stable atropisomeric pair (compound 1b), which has a B-C chiral axis, was achieved using chiral stationary-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (CSP-HPLC). The complete photophysical properties of all compounds were measured and simulated using time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations, and circularly polarized luminescence spectra were obtained for the atropisomers of compound 1b, with their absolute configuration determined by a TD-DFT simulation of the electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra.

Summary: This study successfully synthesized and characterized megamolecules comprising four protein domains attached to a central core. By employing various techniques such as X-ray crystallography and molecular dynamics simulations, the structure and active site linkage of these megamolecules were confirmed. This comprehensive approach provides a solid foundation for further understanding the properties of this new class of molecules.

Summary: Two new metal-organic frameworks were synthesized and characterized, showing potential for adsorbing CO2 and CH4 with high selectivity at different temperatures and pressures. These frameworks demonstrated good selectivity for CO2 adsorption under various conditions, but the selectivity decreased as pressure increased.
