Transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions between naturally abundant sp3-hybridized carbon centers facilitate access to diverse molecules with complex three-dimensional structures. Organometallic compounds are among one of the most powerful reagents that are broadly used in carbon–carbon bondformations. Although sp2-hybridized organometallic compounds are widely employed in cross-couplings, sp3-hybridized

An efficient and convenient palladium-catalyzed cascade carboesterification of norbornenes (NBE) with alkynes has been accomplished to afford functionalized α-methylene γ-lactone and tetrahydrofuran derivatives in good to excellent yields. This new strategy exhibits excellent atom- and step-economy, good functional group tolerance and broad substrate scope. In particular, NBE-palladium species was
Pd(II)-catalyzed hydroalkynylation, alkyne-allene isomerization, and Diels–Alder cycloaddition is reported. The reaction employs readily available starting substrates, proceeds in a highly ordered fashion, features high regio- and stereoselectivity, and tolerates a wide range of functionality and structural motifs, thus offering an attractive strategy for producing new molecular complexity and diversity from easily
In the presence of phosphine catalyst and pinacolborane, ynones undergo 1,2-reduction while ynoates undergotrans-hydroboration. Mechanistic insights into the two competing pathways lay grounds for control of selectivity in these processes.
