A highly enantioselective α‐ketol rearrangement has been developed. In the presence of a chiral Cu‐bisoxazoline complex, achiral β‐hydroxy‐α‐dicarbonyls were isomerized to chiralα‐hydroxy‐β‐dicarbonyls and their bicyclic derivatives in excellent yields and enantioselectivities. Enantioenriched 2‐acyl‐2‐hydroxy cyclohexan‐1‐ones, dihydroxyhexahydrobenzofuranones, and dihydroxyhexahydro‐cycloheptafuranones

The study of the reactions of tertiary propargyl alcohols with sodiumhalidesunder oxidative conditions is presented. With sodium iodide, α-iodoenones were formed, however, with sodium bromide or chloride the α-haloenones were only formed in low yields under anhydrous conditions. Conversely, upon addition of water to the reaction mixtures, α,α-dibromoketones and α,α-dichloroketones were formed in
Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Sequential Cyclization of <i>N</i>-Boc Hydrazones with Propargylic Monofluoroalkynes via C–H Activation/C–F Cleavage for the Synthesis of Spiro[cyclobutane-1,9′-indeno[1,2-<i>a</i>]indenes]
An effective rhodium(III) catalysis for the construction of valuable tetracyclic compounds is described herein. This dominoprocess involving the C–H activation/[3 + 2] annulation/intramolecular Friedel–Crafts reaction sequences of simple and readily available N-Boc hydrazones and propargylic monofluoroalkynes afforded fused tetracyclic spiro[cyclobutane-1,9′-indeno[1,2-a]indenes] in moderate to good
