A practical and effective copper-catalyzed dehydrogenative Diels–Alderreaction of gem-diesters and ketone with dienes has been established. The active dienophiles were generated in situ via a radical-based dehydrogenation process, which reacted with a wide variety of dienes to afford various polysubstituted cyclohexene derivatives in good to excellent yields.

Split personality: Reaction conditions that enable powerful control over the mode of photocycloaddition in maleimides have been developed. Direct irradiation favors the [5+2] mode whereas sensitized irradiation allows a complete switch to the [2+2] mode (see scheme; TBS=tert‐butyldimethylsilyl).

Synthesis of benzocycloheptene-based amino acid derivatives via a [4+2] cycloaddition reaction as a key step
The seven-membered diene 5 is prepared from 2-butyne-1,4-diol using double orthoester Claisen rearrangement reaction as a key step. The Diels-Alder reaction of the diene 5 with various dienophiles followed by oxidation delivered the benzocycloheptene-based a-amino acid derivatives in very good yields.

Synthesis of 2,6-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octanes and 3,8-dioxabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-1(6)-enes by electrophilic cyclization of 3,4-dimethylene-1,6-hexanediols

3,4-Dimethylene-1,6-hexane diols 2 obtained by allylboration of ketones with 2,3-dimethylene-1,4-bis(dipropylboryl)butane 1 undergo cyclization on treatment with I-2/NaHCO3 to give 1,5-cis-di(iodomethyl)-2,6-dioxabicyclo[3.3.0]octanes (4) and/or 3,8-dioxabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-1(6)-enes (5). 4,4,9,9-Tetramethyl-3,8-dioxacyclodeca-1,6-dione (9) was synthesized by ozonolysis of bicyclic compound 5b. The structure of compound 5e was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.
