Gold-catalyzed reactions, which have been widely explored over the past several years, are
powerful tools in organic synthesis to access complex molecular frameworks, and some …

Flavonoids are a group of natural products with a great structural diversity, widely distributed
in plant kingdom. They play an important role in plant growth, development and defense …

Flavanols are privileged heterocyclic compounds in medicinal chemistry. It is notable to
develop an efficient and straightforward protocol for accessing chiral flavanols with precise …

The synthesis and reactions of epoxides and aziridines has been regularly reviewed. 1 e6
The most typical reaction of both heterocyclic systems is the ring-opening reaction in which a …

Stereoselective total synthesis of natural product crisamicin A (1) was accomplished for the
first time via the Pd/TMTU-catalyzed alkoxycarbonylative annulation to generate a unique cis …

N-Fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI) was identified for the first time as a highly effective Ag
(I)-catalyst attenuator in the annulation of a tryptamine-derived ynesulfonamide to azepino …

Enantiomerically pure aryl and benzyl glycidyl ethers undergo stereospecific cyclizations
leading to 3-chromanols or to tetrahydrobenzo [c] oxepin-4-ols under mild conditions in the …

More than five thousand naturally occurring flavonoids are known to exist. In this paper, we
review the synthesis and transformation of flavan, flavone, flavonol, proanthocyanidin …

Cationic gold (I) phosphite catalysts activate allenes for epoxide cascade reactions. The
system is tolerant of numerous functional groups (sulfones, esters, ethers, sulfonamides) …
