RESUMO
A de novo synthesis of a benzene ring allows for the preparation of a diverse range of heterocycles including indoles, benzofurans, benzothiophenes, carbazoles, and dibenzofurans from simple heteroaryl propargylic esters using a unified carbonylative benzannulation strategy. Multiple substituents can be easily introduced to the C4-C7 positions of indoles and related heterocycles.
RESUMO
We have developed a versatile synthetic strategy for the synthesis of the natural product diptoindonesin G and its analogues as selective modulators of estrogen receptors. The strategy involves a regioselective dehydrative cyclization of arylacetals, a regioselective bromination of benzofurans, a sequential cross-coupling of bromo-benzofurans with aryl boronic acids, and a BBr3-mediated tandem cyclization and demethylation. Preliminary biological studies uncovered the critical and dispensable phenolic hydroxyl groups in the natural product and also revealed unexpected selectivity for isoforms of estrogen receptor.

A concise, stereoselective, and protecting-group-free total synthesis of aplykurodinone-1 from Hajos-Parrish ketone was described. The synthetic approach features a sequence of aerobic allylic oxidation and elimination of alcohol 9. The key intermediate for this synthesis was formed by a stereoselective intramolecular radical cyclization.

The title complex, [Cu(2)(CH(3)COO)(4)(C(16)H(12)N(2)O(2))(2)], forms a dimer of the paddle-wheel type located on a crystallographic inversion centre. The two Cu(II) atoms [Cuâ¯Cu = 2.7254â (11)â Å] are bridged by four acetate anions. The geometry of the polyhedron around the metal centre can be described as tetra-gonal-pyramidal derived from the calculation of the value τ = 0.0018. The apical positions of the tetra-gonal-pyramidal copper coordination polyhedra are occupied by the N atoms of 2-(2-fur-yl)-1-(2-furylmeth-yl)-1H-benzimidazole ligands. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked into a chain by inter-molecular C-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds parallel to [010]. Two furan rings are disordered over two positions in ratios of 0.55:0.45 and 0.69:0.31.
RESUMO
A highly π-facial selective and regioselective fluorination of chiral enamides is described. The reaction involves an enantioselective fluorination exclusively at the electron-rich enamide olefin with N-F reagents such as Selectfluor and N-fluoro-benzenesulfonimide [NFSI] accompanied by trapping of the ß-fluoro-iminium cationic intermediate with water. The resulting N,O-hemiacetal could be oxidized using Dess-Martin periodinane, leading to an asymmetric sequence for syntheses of chiral α-fluoro-imides and optically enriched α-fluoro-ketones.
