In the last decade there have been numerous advances in the area of rhodium-catalyzed hydroformylation, such as highly selective catalysts of industrial importance, new insights into mechanisms of the reaction, very selective asymmetric catalysts, in situ characterization and application to organic synthesis. The views on hydroformylation which still prevail in the current textbooks have become obsolete in several respects. Therefore, it was felt timely to collect these advances in a book. The book contains a series of chapters discussing several rhodium systems arranged according to ligand type, including asymmetric ligands, a chapter on applications in organic chemistry, a chapter on modern processes and separations, and a chapter on catalyst preparation and laboratory techniques. This book concentrates on highlights, rather than a concise review mentioning all articles in just one line. The book aims at an audience of advanced students, experts in the field, and scientists from related fields. The didactic approach also makes it useful as a guide for an advanced course.

Transition metal-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction is one of the most efficient ways to access ring systems and remains to be one of the most active areas in organic chemistry. The discovery of 3-acyloxy-1,4-enyne (ACE) and 3-hydroxy-1,4-enyne (HYE) as the five-carbon components has led to the development of various Rh-catalyzed [5+1] and [5+2] cycloadditions in our group. These novel methods offered efficient access to highly substituted six- and seven-membered carbocycles. I will present our progresses on the development, application and mechanistic studies of the following four [5+1] and [5+2] cycloadditions. 1) Using ACE bearing an electron-rich ester as the five-carbon component, a [5+1] cycloaddition was realized under mild conditions for the preparation of highly substituted phenols. 2) Based on our previous success on Rh-catalyzed intermolecular [5+2] cycloaddition of ACE and alkynes, a library of highly substituted tropones was successfully prepared by modifying the cycloheptatriene products derived from the [5+2] cycloaddition. 3) The scope of the Rh-catalyzed intramolecular [5+2] cycloaddition of ACE with alkenes was expanded and the Rh-catalyzed intramolecular [5+2] cycloaddition of ACE with allenes was developed for the synthesis of highly functionalized bicyclic 5-7 fused ring systems with multiple stereogenic centers. 4) Using HYE as the 5-carbon component, a [5+1] carbonylative benzannulation reaction was previously developed in our group for the synthesis of tricyclic carbazoles. The scope of this tandem reaction is now expanded to the synthesis of tetra- and even pentacyclic ring systems including furocarbazoles, thiophenocarbazole, pyrrolocarbazole, and indolocarbazole. Metal carbene intermediates are involved in most of these cycloadditions. The strategy of using propargylic esters and propargylic alcohols as the Rh(I) carbene precursor should have broad implications in transition metal catalysis and metal carbene chemistry.

Cycloaddition Reactions of Heterocumulenes reviews cycloaddition reactions, particularly on hetercocumulenes having "four-electron" bonds. This book discusses the chemical relationship among the various classes of heterocumulenes, including their chemical reactivity which ranges from highly reactive species to nearly inert compounds. This text also investigates the nucleophilic reactions of ketenes and isocyanates with suitable substrates, and if possible, correlates available data with the reactivity of these species in cycloaddition reactions. This book also investigates the cycloaddition reactions of carbon suboxide and other aspects of its chemistry due to the presence of many other interrelated reactions. The synthetic organic chemist should also investigate the application of isocyanate reactions associated with the cumulative double bonds. This text investigates carbodiimides as useful reagents for peptide synthesis, and notes that the stability of carbodiimides increases significantly with sterical hindrance around the cumulative double bond system. This book discusses three compounds that have a central electrophilic carbon atom, namely, carbon dioxide, carbonyl sulfide, and carbon disulfide. The book also describes the cycloaddition reactions of sulfenes, of N-sulfinylamines, of N-sulfinylsulfonamides, and of sulfurdiimides. This book can prove useful for researchers, technicians, and scientists whose works involve organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, and other related fields of chemistry.

The synthesis of heterocycles using transition metal catalysis is a topic of broad interest in the field of organic chemistry. Transition metal catalysts allow many diverse bond disconnections to be realized, allowing for many ways to assemble heterocycles. Many of the transformations developed in the Lautens group are aimed at atom economical bond construction processes that streamline synthesis and minimize waste. The arylcyanation reaction and the asymmetric ring opening (ARO) reaction are two examples of methods developed in our group that embody this design principle. Chapter 1 of this thesis describes the development of a nickel-catalyzed arylcyanation reaction for the synthesis of 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles. This method was inspired by our work on the palladium-catalyzed arylcyanation reaction, originally developed to address challenges in the formal synthesis of (+)-corynoline. This nickel-catalyzed reaction uses an air-stable catalyst precursor to achieve a highly practical synthesis of a nitrile-containing oxindole via a domino Heck-cyanide capture cascade. Derivatizations of the nitrile group affords a series of novel heterocyclic scaffolds. Chapter 2 details the discovery and development of a novel enantioselective cycloisomerization reaction of oxabicyclic alkenes. Our work on developing the intramolecular asymmetric ring opening reaction led to the discovery of a novel epoxide synthesis. Specifically, when bridgehead substituted oxabicyclic alkenes with non-nucleophilic side chains are reacted with the [Rh(cod)2]OTf/PPF-PtBu2 catalyst in the absence of an external nucleophile, chiral epoxides are obtained. The synthesis of epoxides through cycloisomerization reactions possesses 100% atom economy and avoids the use of external oxidant. Chapter 3 describes an asymmetric ring opening reaction, specifically to address gaps in the methodology concerning amine nucleophiles. We were inspired by our group's previous attempts to use amino acid derived nucleophiles in the ARO reaction. We developed a way to incorporate amino acids into the ARO reaction by employing their 2-nitrobenzenesulfonamide (nosyl) derivatives as pronucleophiles. Intriguingly, we observed a divergence in reactivity between the diastereomeric hydroxyester products, in that one diastereomer was capable of lactonization and the other was not. This led to the enantioselective synthesis of chiral oxazinones, which are similar to the naphthoxazine class of compounds which possess dopaminergic activity.
