In synthetic organic chemistry, there are very useful basic compounds known as building blocks. One of the main reactions wherein they are applied for the synthesis of complex molecules is the Diels–Alder cycloaddition. This reaction is between a diene and a dienophile. Among the most important dienes are the cyclic dienes, as they facilitate the reaction. This review considers the synthesis and reactivity of one of these dienes with special characteristics—it is cyclic and has an electron withdrawing group. This building block has been used for the synthesis of biologically active compounds and is present in natural compounds with interesting properties.

AbstractCyclic cis-1,3-diamines are versatile building blocks frequently found in natural molecules or biologically active compounds. In comparison with widely studied 1,2-diamines, and despite their chemical similarity, 1,3-diamines have been investigated less intensively probably because of a lack of general synthetic procedures giving access to these compounds with good levels of chemo-, regio-, and stereocontrol. In this Account we will give a general overview of the biological interest of cyclic cis-1,3-diamines. We will then describe the synthesis and potential applications of these compounds with a particular focus on the work realized in our laboratory.1 Introduction2 Biological Relevance of the cis-1,3-Diamine Motif3 Classical Synthetic Strategies towards cis-1,3-Diamines4 N–N Bond Cleavage of Bicyclic Hydrazines: A Versatile Method to Access cis-1,3-Diamines4.1 Preparation of Five-Membered Cyclic cis-1,3-Diamino Alcohols4.2 Access to Fluorinated 1,3-cis-Diaminocyclopentanes4.3 Synthesis of cis-1,3-Diaminocyclohexitols4.4 Formation of Cyclic cis-3,5-Diaminopiperidines5 Applications of Cyclic cis-1,3-Diamines5.1 Small-Molecular RNA Binders5.2 Fluorinated 1,3-Diamino Cyclopentanes as NMR Probes6 Concluding Remarks

: Recent advances in the environmentally benign synthesis of common heterocycles are described. This account features three main parts; the preparation of non-aromatic heterocycles, one-ring aromatic heterocycles and their condensed analogs. Due to the great variety of and high interest in these compounds, this work focuses on providing representative examples of the preparation of the target compounds.

Giving reactions the names of their discoverers is an extraordinary tradition of organic chemistry. Nowadays, this phenomenon is much rarer, although already named historical reactions are still often developed. This is also true in the case of a broad branch of N‑heterocyclic carbenes catalysis. NHCs allow many unique synthetic paths, including commonly known name reactions. This article aims to gather this extensive knowledge and compare historical reactions with current developed processes. Furthermore, this review is a great opportunity to highlight some of the unique applications of these procedures in the total synthesis of biologically active compounds. Hence, this concise article may also be a source of knowledge for scientists just starting their adventure with N‑heterocyclic carbene chemistry.

Abstract Axially chiral compounds are widespread in biologically active compounds and are useful chiral ligands or organocatalysts in asymmetric catalysis. It is well-known that styrenes are one of the most abundant and principal feedstocks and thus represent excellent prospective building blocks for chemical synthesis. Driven by the development of atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral styrene derivatives, we discovered herein the asymmetric organocatalytic approach via direct Michael addition reaction of substituted diones/ketone esters/malononitrile to alkynals. The axially chiral styrene compounds were produced with good chemical yields, enantioselectivities and almost complete E/Z-selectivities through a secondary amine-catalysed iminium activation strategy under mild conditions. Such structural motifs are important precursors for further transformations into biologically active compounds and synthetic useful intermediates and may have potential applications in asymmetric synthesis as olefin ligands or organocatalysts.
