Recent development in the transition metal-catalyzed cyclization reactions for organic syntheses in the author's laboratories is summarized, which includes (i) novel silylcarbocyclizations (SiCaCs) and carbonylative carbotricyclizations, (ii) intramolecular silylformylations and desymmerization of siloxydiynes by sequential double silylformylation, (iii) efficient total synthesis of (+)-prosopinine, (iv) enantioselective desymmetrization of aminodienes, and (iv) new and efficient routes to 1-azabicyclo[x.y.0]alkane amino acids. All these processes are catalyzed by Rh or Rh­Co complexes, and useful for rapid and efficient construction of a variety of heterocyclic and carbocyclic compounds. Mechanisms of these new carbocyclization and cyclohydrocarbonylation reactions are also discussed.

The γ-lactone skeleton is very important component of various natural products, biological molecules, food additives, and perfumes. As a result, much effort has been made towards such compounds. In this review, we summarize recent progress in transition-metal-catalyzed annulation reactions for the formation of γ-lactone derivatives through a radical pathway. Various reagents, such as anhydrides, Togni’s reagent, TMSN3, arenesulfonyl chlorides, arenediazonium salts, dibenzoyl peroxides, O-benzoylhydroxylamine, NFSI, and α-halocarboxylic compounds, used in radical cyclization reactions are described, and the mechanisms of these radical annulation reactions are also discussed.1 Introduction2 Annulations of Alkenes with Anhydrides3 Annulations of Unsaturated Carboxylic Acids with Nucleophiles4 Annulations of Alkenes with α-Halocarboxylic Compounds5 Conclusions and Outlook

This short review describes the recent progress made on transition-metal-catalyzed annulative couplings for the synthesis of 3-methyleneisoindolin-1-ones, which are useful intermediates for the synthesis of numerous alkaloids and can be often found in a wide range of natural products and pharmaceuticals. In particular, new one-pot multiple C–C/C–N bond-forming processes for the construction of the 5-methylenepyrrol-2-one nucleus of such compounds are summarized.1 Introduction2 Intramolecular Cyclization Reactions: C3–N or C3–C3a and C–C Bond Formation3 Intermolecular Annulative Coupling Reactions3.1 C3–C3a and C3–N Bond Formation3.2 C1–C7a and C3–N Bond Formation3.3 C1–C7a and C1–N Bond Formation3.4 C1–C7a, C1–N and C3–N Bond Formation3.5 C3–C3a, C1–C7a, C1–N and C3–N Bond Formation: A Pd-Catalyzed One-Pot Sonogashira Coupling–Carbonylation–Amination–Cyclization Cascade4 Conclusion
