The main objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive survey of methods used for
stereoselective construction of carbon–nitrogen bonds during the total synthesis of nitrogen …

Abstract The Pd‐catalyzed, CuI− carboxylate‐mediated cross‐coupling reaction of
organosulfur compounds with nucleophilic organometallic reagents is known as the …

Covering: July 2012 to June 2015. Previous review: Nat. Prod. Rep., 2013, 30, 869–915 The
structurally diverse imidazole-, oxazole-, and thiazole-containing secondary metabolites are …

Marine invertebrates provide a rich source of metabolites with anticancer activities and
several marine-derived agents have been approved for the treatment of cancer. However …

Herein, a selective tandem C–C bond-forming reaction with CO2 was developed to realize
the bridging of enaminones and synthesis of 1, 4-dihydropyridines, respectively. n …

The synthetic chemistry of azetidine constitutes an important yet undeveloped research
area, in spite of their ubiquity in natural products and importance in medicinal chemistry …

The first highly diastereo‐and enantioselective synthesis of five‐membered spiro‐2H‐
pyrroles was achieved using an Ir‐catalyzed asymmetric allylic dearomatization reaction …

The first Lewis acid catalyzed enantioselective ring‐opening desymmetrization of a donor–
acceptor meso‐diaminocyclopropane is reported. The copper (II)‐catalyzed Friedel–Crafts …

A Pd-catalyzed asymmetric [5+ 2] cycloaddition reaction was developed for the synthesis of
N-fused 1, 3-oxazepines using vinylethylene carbonates and sulfamate-derived cyclic …

Background The tumor microenvironment has complex effects in cancer pathophysiology
that are not fully understood. Most cancer therapies are directed against malignant cells …
