Enantioselective synthesis of cyclobutane derivatives is still a challenging topic in asymmetric synthesis. [2+2]-Cycloaddition and skeleton rearrangement are two primary strategies to this end. Recently, functionalization of cyclobutanones and cyclobutenones, which are readily available via [2+2]-cycloadditions as prochiral substrates, has emerged as a powerful tool to access versatile four-membered ring compounds. Herein, we summarize some recent advances in these areas from our and other groups.

An exquisite Pybox/Cu(OTf)2-catalyzed asymmetric tandem reaction of tertiary enamides was developed, which enabled the expeditious synthesis of indolizino[8,7-b]indole derivatives in high yield, excellent enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity.

A concise and selective synthesis of the dichlorinated meroterpenoid azamerone is described. The paucity of tactics for the synthesis of chiral organochlorides motivated the development of unique strategies for accessing these motifs in enantioenriched forms. The route features a novel enantioselective chloroetherification reaction, a Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling between a quinone diazide and a boronic hemiester, and a late-stage tetrazine [4+2]-cycloaddition/oxidation cascade.

<div> <div> <div> <p>The union of two powerful transformations, directed C–H activation and decarboxylative cross-coupling, for the enantioselective synthesis of vicinally functionalized alkyl, carbocyclic, and heterocyclic compounds is described. Starting from simple carboxylic acid building blocks, this modular sequence exploits the residual directing group to access more than 50 scaffolds that would be otherwise extremely difficult to prepare. The tactical use of these two transformations accomplishes a formal vicinal difunctionalization of carbon centers in a way that is modular and thus amenable to rapid diversity incorporation. A simplification of routes to known preclinical drug candidates is presented along with the rapid diversification of an antimalarial compound series. </p> </div> </div> </div>
