Understanding the mechanism of stereoselective synthesis of cyclopentenes via N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed reactions of enals with enones.

The N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed addition of enals to enones to yield trans-cyclopentenes has been investigated using DFT methods at B3LYP/6-31G** computational level. This NHC catalyzed reaction comprises several steps. The first one is the formation of a Breslow intermediate, which nucleophilically attacks to the conjugated position of the enone to yield an enol-enolate. This second...

A highly regio- and stereoselective cascade annulation of enals and benzodi(enone)s catalyzed by N-heterocyclic carbenes.

The rapid catalytic construction of relatively complex molecules in a highly selective manner is an attractive goal in organic synthesis. In the area of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis, the unconventional NHC-mediated activation of enal compounds has led to a diverse set of new reactions, such as lactone and lactam formations, cycloaddition reactions, Michael reactions, and self-redox es...

Enantioselective Stetter reactions of enals and modified chalcones catalyzed by N-heterocyclic carbenes.

Organocatalytic activation of readily available substrates has led to the rapid development of many enantioselective reactions in the last decade. In N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis, reactions of enals with enones or enone derivatives have been extensively investigated and are reported to undergo a diverse set of transformations based on the catalytically generated enolate and homoenolat...
