Prins Cyclizations in Silyl Additives with Suppression of Epimerization: Versatile Tool in the Synthesis of the
Tetrahydropyran Backbone of Natural Products
Org. Lett. 2005, 7, 4491-4494.
Catalytic Prins Cyclization using In(OTf)3 and Silyl Additives
Significance: Use of a catalytic amount of In(OTf)3 (5 mol%) and trimethylsilyl halides gave a highly diastereoselective Prins cyclization. Re-duced epimerization was achieved by using a weaker Lewis acid, In(OTf)3 and also TMSBr as additive which also acts as the halide source. Ex-cellent diastereoselectivity for the 2,4,6-trisubsti-tuted tetrahydropyran products were observed.
Comment: Although the Prins cyclization is the most common method to synthesize a THP ring, there are limitations such as substrate scope, the need to use a stoichiometric amount of Lewis acid and epimerization of the starting homoallylic alco-hols due to transfer between the homoallylic alco-hol and aldehyde. By using a catalytic amount of a weak Lewis acid and silyl additives to suppress epimerization, the latter two problems are avoid-ed. Sterically hindered substituents such as cyclo-hexyl were tolerated as well as a,b-unsaturated al-dehydes. The key reaction was successfully applied towards the total synthesis of (–)-centro-lobine.

Catalytic Asymmetric Allylation of Aldehydes via a Chiral Indium(III) Complex
Chem. Commun. 2005, 1318-1320.
Asymmetric Allylation of Aldehydes Catalyzed by a Chiral Indium(III)-BINOL Complex
Significance: The first chiral indium(III)-catalyzed allylation reaction of aldehydes is disclosed. By using catalytic InCl3/(S)-BINOL, highly enantiose-lective formation of homoallylic alcohols was achieved using allyltributylstannane.
Comments: This allylation protocol developed is relatively simple, mild and affords excellent enan-tioselectivity with both aromatic and aliphatic al-dehydes. The most likely drawback is the high toxicity of organotin reagents. Further studies to determine the scope of the reaction with a variety of aromatic aldehydes is required. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that the active chiral Lewis acid catalyst is a BINOL-In(III)-allyl complex. There are many asymmetric allylation reagents or allylation catalysts present in the literature (for a review see: S. E. Denmark, J. Fu Chem. Rev. 2003, 103, 2763-2794).

Gram-Scale Synthesis of (–)-Epibatidine
Org. Lett. 2005, 7, 2965-2967.
Synthesis of (–)-Epibatidine
Significance: (–)-Epibatidine, an alkaloid isolated from the Ecuadorian dendrobatid poison frog Epipedobates tricolor, is a nonopiate analgesic 200 times more potent than morphine. The scarci-ty of (–)-Epibatidine (1 mg from 750 frogs) has hampered its biological evaluation. There are many syntheses of Epibatidine but few of them are practical. The present synthesis is short (12 steps, 12% overall yield) and scalable.
Review: Recent syntheses of Epibatidine: H. F. Olivo, M. S. Hemenway Org. Prep. Proced. Int. 2002, 34, 1-26.
Comment: The key steps are (a) a diastereoselec-tive Barbier allylation of the imine A derived from (S)-phenylglycine and (b) a ring-closing metathesis to generate cyclohexene C. A regrettable step was the bromination of alkene C, which was effi-cient (92%) but the diastereoselectivity was poor (2:1), the desired isomer (corresponding to D) be-ing the minor isomer. The undesired major isomer could be recycled by reductive debromination to return to C.

Cu(I) Tol-BINAP-Catalyzed Enantioselective Michael Reactions of Grignard Reagents and Unsaturated Esters
J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 276-277.
Cu(I)-Catalyzed Asymmetric Michael Addition of Grignard Reagents to a,b-Unsaturated Esters
Significance: In this article, an extension to the Cu(I)-catalyzed asymmetric Michael addition of various Grignard reagents to a,b-unsaturated esters is presented. CuI along with the chiral Tol-BINAP ligand is used as catalyst system in this re-action. A major advantage to previously described methods is the unproblematic addition of bulky alkyl and homoallylic Grignard reagents which still gives high enantioselectivities and good to excel-lent yields. The authors also report that the abso-lute stereochemistry of the products resulting from the asymmetric Michael addition can be reversed with equally good enantioselectivities by using ei-ther the enantiomer of the chiral ligand or by using the geometrical isomer of the respective unsatur-ated ester.
Comment: The method allows the performance of a highly regio- and enantioselective Cu(I)-cata-lyzed Michael addition reaction even with sterically hindered and homoallylic Grignard reagents. It is thereby applicable to a variety of a,b-unsaturated esters and gives good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities.

Lewis Acid-Promoted Intermolecular Acetal-Initiated Cationic Polyene Cyclizations
J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 492-493.
Intermolecular Acetal-Initiated Cationic Polyene Cyclizations
Significance: This report describes the intermo-lecular acetal-initiated polyene cyclization induced by SnCl4. The authors do a nice job in optimizing the reaction and find a chiral templated acetal that allows for considerably high dr values. The abso-lute and relative stereochemistry were determined for the products through derivatization and X-ray crystallography. Some of the cyclization products were also functionalized to various terpenes. Im-portantly, this report does not require the some-times difficult and tedious incorporation of the ac-etal into the cyclization precursor.
Comment: While intramolecular polyene cycliza-tions have received attention over the years, the intermolecular acetal-initiated counterpart has not. Many of the previous reports by W. S. Johnson deal with intramolecular cyclizations using a chiral acetal at the terminal position (see review below). This intermolecular version is much more difficult. It provides a very interesting foundation for future exploration of this operationally simple cyclization to complex architecture.
Review: W. S. Johnson Tetrahedron, 1991, 47, xi-l.

Indium-Copper-Mediated Barbier-Grignard-Type Alkylation Reaction of Imines in Aqueous Media
Org. Lett. 2007, 9, 5413-5416.
In(0)/Cu(I)-Mediated Alkylation of Imines in Aqueous Media
Significance: The direct addition of alkyl organo-metallic to imines is known to be a challenging re-action. A Barbier–Grignard-type alkylation of imi-nes with secondary alkyl iodides in water, as reported here, is a good alternative. The imines are obtained in situ from aldehydes and amines. Both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes can be successfully used. A diastereoselective variant of this reaction, using an enantiopure amine, is also described. The mild condition and simplicity makes this method attractive for scale-up pro-cesses.
Comment: This reaction can be considered as a three-component condensation and may find use in combinatorial chemistry. In the absence of CuI, the yields are low, and CuBr and CuCl are less ef-ficient. Admittedly, the In-Cu pair causes the for-mation of a radical from the alkyl iodide, which fur-ther reacts with an imine. L-Val-OMe demonstrated the best diastereoselectivity in the addition reac-tion among the tested chiral auxiliaries. It can also be readily cleaved after the reaction (see scheme).

Highly Enantioselective Carbonyl-ene Reactions Catalyzed by In(III)–PyBox Complex
J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 16492-16493.
Indium(III)–PyBox-Catalyzed Carbonyl-ene Reaction of Glyoxylates
Significance: The indium(III)–PyBox catalyst sys-tem is shown to mediate the enantioselective carbonyl-ene reaction of glyoxylates with good yield and ee values. The catalyst loading can be lowered to 5 mol%, and only two equivalents of a-methylstyrene substrate is used. Unfortunately, the rate of the reaction is relatively slow and takes a few days to complete.
Comment: The metal source and chiral ligand used in this study are both commercially available now, making this reaction very attractive for the preparation of chiral homoallylic alcohol building blocks. Although this reaction needs days to com-plete, it still can serve well if it is applied on a large scale.

Highly Enantioselective Carbonyl-ene Reactions Catalyzed by In(III)-PyBox Complex
J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 16492-16493.
In(III)-PyBox Complex Catalyzed Enantioselective Carbonyl-ene Reaction
Significance: In this paper, the authors have de-veloped highly enantioselective and efficient car-bonyl-ene reactions of ethyl glyoxylate catalyzed by the In(III)-PyBox complex. This methodology has several advantages, such as operational sim-plicity, mild reaction conditions, low catalyst load-ing (<5 mol%), and high enantioselectivities and yields.
Comment: The Loh group has developed the In(III)-PyBox complex and successfully applied it to various reactions (Chem. Commun. 2006, 2739, and references therein). In this paper, they extended its application to carbonyl-ene reac-tions. Both aromatic and aliphatic alkenes afford-ed the expected homoallylic alcohols in good to excellent yields and excellent enantioselectivities. Moreover, it is notable that the reaction of a trisub-stituted alkene gave the single regioisomer with high diastereoselectivity (>99:1) and enantio-selectivity albeit in moderate yield. However, hopefully the substrate scope and reaction condi-tions will be improved in the future.

Indium-Copper and Indium-Silver Mediated Barbier–Grignard-Type Alkylation Reaction of Aldehydes Using
Unactivated Alkyl Halides in Water
J. Org. Chem. 2008, 73, 3922-3924.
Indium-Mediated Addition of Unactivated Alkyl Halides to Aldehydes in Water
Significance: The authors report here an interest-ing variation of the Barbier–Grignard-type alkyl-ation of aldehydes, including both aromatic and aliphatic ones, using non-activated alkyl iodides in water. This method offers an interesting method-ological approach toward new green synthetic chemistry. Besides, it may be quite useful for the functionalization of molecules bearing acidic pro-tons, which are not compatible with the conven-tional Grignard chemistry. The reaction is very sim-ple to perform and offers moderate to good product yields.
Comment: The reaction mechanism was studied using 4-pentenal, which gives a tetrahydrofuran derivative as the main product, thus proving the radical character of the reaction intermediates. Noticeably, the reaction proceeds less efficiently in any solvent other than water, or even in their mix-tures with water. Mostly, but not always, the addi-tion of CuI gives better results than AgI.

Direct Cross-Coupling Reaction of Simple Alkenes with Acrylates Catalyzed by Palladium Catalyst
J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2009, 131, 1372-1373.
Palladium-Catalyzed Direct Cross-Coupling of Alkenes and Acrylates
Significance: A palladium-catalyzed direct cross-coupling between alkenes and acrylates is report-ed. The scope is broad and the E/Z selectivities are good, although the yields are moderate to low. Overall, this is an efficient method for synthesizing dienoates using simple olefins and mild reaction conditions.
Comment: Reports of alkenyl C–H bond activa-tion are limited, and this reaction may or may not proceed through this mechanism. A sequential 1,2-addition pathway explains the formation of the product and the authors could not discriminate between this mechanism and that of direct C–H activation. Only 2,2-disubstituted olefins were suitable substrates for the reaction.

Indium (Zinc)–Copper-Mediated Barbier-Type Alkylation Reaction of Nitrones in Water: Synthesis of Amines and
Hydroxylamines
Org. Lett. 2009, 11, 1209-1212.
Alkylation of Nitrones in Water: Synthesis of Amines and Hydroxylamines
Significance: This indium (zinc)–copper-mediat-ed Barbier-type alkylation of nitrones is reported to give secondary amines or hydroxylamines, de-pending on the use of indium or zinc metal, re-spectively. The products are obtained in good yields enabling a straightforward synthesis of a large library of amines or hydroxylamines. The reaction setup is simple and attractive for an even-tual scale-up.
Comment: Chiral nitrones are also converted into the corresponding amines or hydroxylamines in a good diastereomeric ratio. For the synthesis of amines, the authors propose a radical mechanism initiated by a single-electron transfer from indium/copper to the alkyl iodide generating an alkyl radi-cal which then attacks the nitrone. Subsequent re-duction of the nitrone radical anion and quenching by water affords the hydroxylamine which in turn is further reduced by indium metal to yield the desired amine.

Highly Enantioselective Ketone–Ene Reactions of Trifluoropyruvate: Significant Counterion Effect of the
In(III)–PyBox Complex
Org. Lett. 2009, 11, 5714-5716.
Enantioselective In(III)-Catalyzed Ketone–Ene Reaction
Significance: Building upon their previous work (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 16492) the au-thors report on an indium(III)–pybox-based cata-lyst system of enhanced reactivity for the ketone–ene reactions of trifluoropyruvate, providing ho-moallylic alcohols with a quaternary stereocenter in high yield and enantioselectivity.
Comment: The authors hypothesized that the Lewis acidity of the catalyst could be increased by replacing the counterion of the parent complex by a more non-coordinating anion. The authors sys-tematically investigated several silver salts as ad-ditives and found a significant counterion effect verifying their hypothesis. The efficiency of the catalyst increased with decreasing basicity of the counterion. Furthermore, it was found that the enantioselectivity was dependent upon the amount of additive present. In general the yields and enantioselectivity are excellent. The transfor-mation is sensitive to both the sterics and elec-tronics of the substrate. Electron-withdrawing groups dramatically increase the reaction time and steric bulk at the ortho-position decreases the selectivity.

Bio-Inspired Polyene Cyclization: Aziridinyl Polyene Cyclization Catalyzed by InBr3
Chem. Commun. 2009, 3738-3740.
Indium Bromide Catalyzed Aziridinyl Polyene Cyclization
Significance: Aziridine-initiated polyene cycliza-tion similar to the process mediated by 2,3-oxi-dosqualene cyclase can be a useful approach towards a number of biologically interesting aza-terpenes. This paper shows the first example of such a transformation mediated by a catalytic amount of Lewis acid. The developed protocol provides easy access to chiral terpenoid com-pounds containing a 3-amino group in the A ring.
Comment: Various tri- and tetracyclic products were prepared with good yields and high diaste-reoselectivities. Using an enantiomerically en-riched substrate furnished the corresponding product with full retention of enantiomeric purity. The procedure involves the use of 20 mol% of indium bromide under generally mild conditions. It is noteworthy that other indium salts demon-strated lower yields. Other Lewis acids tested also showed inferior results. The relative stereochemis-try was determined by X-ray crystal structure anal-ysis.

Palladium-Catalyzed Oxime Assisted Intramolecular Dioxygenation of Alkenes with 1 atm of Air as the Sole Oxidant
J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2010, 132, 6284-6285.
Palladium-Catalyzed Dioxygenation of Alkenes
Significance: This work examines a palladium-catalyzed dioxygenation of alkenes under an air atmosphere. Several examples of analogous dioxygenations have recently emerged from the groups of Sigman (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2009, 131, 17074), Dong and Song (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2008, 130, 2962), and Jiang (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2009, 131, 3846). This work is significant since atmospheric oxygen is the sole oxidant utilized throughout the reaction. The scope is general in substitution at the oxime (R1).
Comment: The reaction yields a mixture of the free alcohol and the acetylated alcohol, which is hydrolyzed with potassium carbonate in methanol before workup. Substitution at the oxime is well tolerated with both aliphatic and aromatic groups giving good results. Instead of air, hydrogen per-oxide can be used as an oxidant to yield similar results. The mechanism seems to involve the in-tramolecular addition of the oxime OH group to the alkene to yield an alkylpalladium intermediate which is oxidized to furnish the products. Substit-uents at the alkene bearing b-hydrogens exclu-sively give the products of b-hydride elimination. A labeling experiment using 18O2 shows incorpo-ration in the hydroxyl-containing products.

Synthesis of Water-Tolerant Indium Homoenolate in Aqueous Media and Its Application in the Synthesis of
1,4-Dicarbonyl Compounds via Palladium-Catalyzed Coupling with Acid Chloride
J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2010, 132, 15852-15855.
Coupling of Indium Homoenolates with Acid Chlorides
Significance: In this work the preparation of water-tolerant indium homoenolates is reported. The reaction proceeds exclusively in aqueous solution by the oxidative addition of In/InCl3. The synthetic value of these homoenolates is shown in a palladium-catalyzed coupling with various acid chlorides, providing 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds in excellent yield.
Comment: The structure of the indium homoeno-late was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffrac-tion. Both indium(0) and indium(III) chloride are necessary for an effective transformation of the enone; water is needed for the protonation of the a-position to generate the final indium homoenolate. Various acid chlorides with electron-withdrawing or -donating groups react well under these conditions.

Enantioselective Carbonyl-Ene Reactions of Trifluoropyruvate in Ionic Liquid via a Recyclable Indium(III)–Pybox
Complex
Adv. Synth. Catal. 2010, 352, 2085-2088.
Indium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Carbonyl-Ene Reaction of Trifluoropyruvate
Significance: Asymmetric ketone-ene reaction involving trifluoropyruvate allows the preparation of enantiomerically enriched tertiary homoallylic alcohols containing a CF3 group, which are impor-tant building blocks for agrochemicals and phar-maceuticals. This methodology received rather limited attention despite the extensive studies of asymmetric aldehyde-ene reactions. In this paper, a highly enantioselective protocol involving the use of indium(III)–pybox catalyst in an ionic liquid is reported; a range of products were obtained in 74–98% yields and with up to 98% ee.
Comment: The developed procedure is notable for a number of important advantages, such as easy accessibility of the catalyst, moisture toler-ance, and operational simplicity. The use of ionic liquid allows easy separation of the products and recyclability of the catalyst: the system could be reused for up to seven times with excellent cata-lytic outcome. The ionic liquid [hmim]PF6 proved to be the optimum reaction media. Most of the reactions proceeded faster in the ionic liquid than in the organic solvents with comparable or better yields and enantioselectivities. The expansion of the method to substrates containing substituents other than CF3 (Ar, Alk) would be highly desirable.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
“Total Synthesis of Phytophthora Mating Hormone alpha-1”Organic Letters
Scientists are reporting a key advance toward development of a way to combat theterrible plant diseases that caused the Irish potato famine and still inflict billions ofdollars of damage to crops each year around the world. Their study appears in ACS’bi-weekly journal Organic Letters.
Teck-Peng Loh and colleagues point out that the Phytophthora fungi cause extensivedamage to food crops such as potatoes and soybeans as well as to ornamental plantslike azaleas and rhododendrons. One species of the fungus caused the Irish potato famine in the mid 1840s. Thatdisaster resulted in nearly one million deaths from starvation and forced millions more people to flee Ireland forthe United States and other countries. Still difficult to control despite the use of modern pesticides, the funguscontinues to cause $6 billion in damage to global potato crops annually. Scientists, however, have isolated a keyhormone, alpha-1, that allows Phytophthora to reproduce. The hormone exists in several different forms, and asynthetic version of the most biologically active form could provide the basis for developing a way to control thefungus and reduce its threat, the scientists suggest.
They describe an advance toward this goal, the synthesis of a particularly active form of the mating hormonecalled (3R,7R,11R,15R)-hormone alpha-1. The scientists also showed that they could make relatively largequantities of the hormone. The advance could open the door to an effective method to fight this ancient scourge,they suggest.

A New Class of Structurally Rigid Tricyclic Chiral Secondary Amine Organocatalyst: Highly Enantioselective
Organocatalytic Michael Addition of Aldehydes to Vinyl Sulfones
Org. Lett. 2011, 13, 876-879.
Michael Addition of Aldehydes to Vinyl Sulfones
Significance: Loh and co-workers report a cata-lytic asymmetric Michael addition of aldehydes to vinyl sulfones using newly designed catalyst 2, synthesized on the basis of natural product struc-tures. The authors demonstrated that catalyst 2 is efficient in the Michael reaction of aldehydes to vinyl sulfones. This class of the Michael reaction typically requires high catalyst loading and low reaction temperature. The new catalyst system provides milder reaction conditions.
Comment: Synthesis of new catalysts is very im-portant in that it provides a route to solve chal-lenging reactions and overcome the limitations of existing methods. Recently, the authors reported a catalytic asymmetric Michael addition of unmod-ified aldehydes to nitroalkenes using the new tri-cyclic catalyst 1 (Org. Lett. 2010, 12, 1220). Through a simple modification of catalyst 1, the authors found that catalyst 2 is able to mediate the Michael addition of aldehydes to vinyl sulfones successfully. The reaction was carried out under mild reaction conditions in the presence of a rela-tively low catalyst loading (5–10 mol%).

In(III)–Pybox Complex Catalyzed Enantioselective Mukaiyama Aldol Reactions between Polymeric or Hydrated
Glyoxylates and Enolsilanes Derived from Aryl Ketones
Chem. Sci. 2011, 2, 349-352.
Enantioselective Mukaiyama Aldol Reactions with Glyoxylates
Significance: The enantioselective aldol reaction is among the most useful and well-developed transformations for the synthesis of chiral materi-als. Despite this, gaps in asymmetric aldol meth-odology still exist. The authors present the first example of a general, highly enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol reaction between aryl ketones and glyoxylates. An indium–PyBox complex is used as a chiral Lewis acid to induce asymmetry.
Comment: Both polymeric and hydrated glyoxy-late esters can be used directly without purifica-tion, providing practical advantages over similar enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol reactions. Sub-stituents in the ortho position of the enolsilane required extended reaction times of up to three days. Notably, the alcohol is obtained directly from the reaction, with no TIPS-protected product ob-served.
