Acyclic Stereocontrol in the Additions of Nucleophilic Alkenes to α‐Chiral N‐Sulfonyl Imines
Lucas C. Moore,Anna Lo,Jason S. Fell,Matthew R. Duong,Jose A Moreno,Barry E Rich,Martin Bravo,James C. Fettinger,Lucas W. Souza,Marilyn M. Olmstead,Kendall N. Houk,Jared T. Shaw +11 more
TL;DR: Development of conditions to produce both syn and anti products with high diastereoselectivity and good yields is described, and a stereoelectronic model consistent with experimental outcomes is proposed.

Catalytic generation of ortho-quinone dimethides via donor/donor rhodium carbenes
Ming‐Zhu Gao,Jose Maria Maldonado Ruiz,Anna Lo,Croix J. Laconsay,James C. Fettinger,Dean J. Tantillo,Jared T. Shaw +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper , an elimination reaction was proposed to yield ortho-quinone dimethide (o-QDM) intermediates without the intermediacy of a benzocyclobutene.
Deconvoluting Nonlinear Catalyst–Substrate Effects in the Intramolecular Dirhodium-Catalyzed C–H Insertion of Donor/Donor Carbenes Using Data Science Tools
Lucas W. Souza,Beck R. Miller,Ryan C. Cammarota,Anna Lo,Ixchel Lopez,Yuan-Shin Shiue,Benjamin D. Bergstrom,Sarah N. Dishman,James C. Fettinger,Matthew S. Sigman,Jared T. Shaw +10 more
TL;DR: Deconvoluting nonlinear catalyst–substrate effects in the intramolecular dirhodium-catalyzed C–H insertion of donor/donor carbenes using data science tools leads to a high-performing model that predicts external validation points well and provides mechanistic insights into the reaction.

One-Pot Assembly and Synthetic Applications of Geminal Acyl/Alkoxy Tetrasubstituted Allenes.
Benjamin D. Bergstrom,Garrett Toth-Williams,Anna Lo,Jeffrey W Toman,James C. Fettinger,Jared T. Shaw +5 more
TL;DR: The synthesis of tetrasubstituted allenes featuring a novel geminal acyl/alkoxy substitution are reported, which are bench-stable and exhibit interesting reactivity in several applications.

1,3-Asymmetric Induction in Diastereoselective Allylations of Chiral N-Tosyl Imines
TL;DR: Observed selectivity trends and computational evidence suggest that 1,3 asymmetric induction occurs through the formation of a six- membered ring chelate which adopts a half-chair-like conformation.
