The catalytic enantioselective conjugate addition reaction of $\alpha$-nitroacetate to $\alpha,\beta$-unsaturated enones promoted by chiral bifunctional organocatalysts is described. The treatment of $\alpha$-nitroacetate to $\alpha,\beta$-unsaturated enones afforded the corresponding Michael adducts with high enantioselectivity. The conjugate addition adducts are easily converted to chiral $\gamma$-nitro ketones and $\delta$-keto esters.

Borohydride exchange resin $(BER)-CuSO_4$ system readily reduces {\alpha},{\beta}$-unsaturated ketones to the corresponding saturated alcohols quantitatively. This reduction tolerates many functional groups such as carbon-carbon multiple bonds, chlorides, epoxides, esters, amides and nitriles.

A new heterocuprate containing 2-pyridyloxy ligand, lithium 2-pyridyloxy-n-butylcuprate, has shown improved thermal stability and it reacts with acid chlorides to afford the corresponding ketones in high yields. Similarly, it can be effectively utilized in conjugate addition reactions of $\alpha,\beta$-unsaturated ketones. Of synthetic significance is that the complete utilization of n-butyl group in lithium 2-pyridyloxy-n-butylcuprate has been observed.

Chlorobis(isoprene)rhodium(Ⅰ) (3), prepared by olefin-exchange reaction of chlorobis(cyclooctene)rhodium dimer (2) with isoprene, reacted with benzaldimine 4 to give iminoacylrhodium(Ⅲ) ${\eta}^3$-1,2-dimethylallyl complex 6. Ligand-promoted reductive elimination of 6 by pyridine and P(OMe)$_3$ produced ${\beta},{\gamma}$-unsaturated ketimine 8, which was readily hydrolyzed to give ${\beta},{\gamma}$-unsaturated ketone 9. Other methyl branched dienes such as 2,3-dimethylbutadiene, 3-methyl-1,3-pentadiene, 2-methyl-1,3-pentadiene, 2,4-dimethyl-1,3-pentadiene, 3-methyl-1,4-pentadiene and 2-methyl-1,4-pentadiene, were applied the synthesis of ${\beta},{\gamma}$-unsaturated ketones. In case of 2,4-dimethyl-1,3-pentadiene, only ${\gamma},{\delta}$ -unsaturated ketone 25, 1,2-addition product, was obtained, may be due to the mono-olefin coordination.

Recent studies on the photoreactivity of l,4-unsaturated systems have changed some ideas that were firmly established in this area of research for many years. Thus, we have described the first examples of 2-aza-di-$\pi$-methane (2-ADPM) rearrangements promoted by triplet-sensitization and by single electron transfer (SET) using electron-acceptor sensitizers. These reactions afford N-vinylaziridine and cyclopropylimine photoproducts in the first examples of di-$\pi$-methane processes that yield three-membered ring heterocycles. l-Aza-1,4-dienes also undergo SET-promoted l-aza-di-$\pi$-methane (l-ADPM) rearrangements via radical-cation intermediates using electron acceptor sensitizers. In some cases, alternative cyclizations yielding different carbocycles and heterocycles have been observed. The l-ADPM and di-$\pi$-methane (DPM) reactions also occur via radical-anion intermediates on irradiation using electron donor sensitizers. On the other hand, the photoreactivity reported for $\beta$,${\gamma}$-unsaturated aldehydes for many years was decarbonylation to the corresponding alkenes. However, our studies demonstrate that these compounds undergo the oxa-di-$\pi$-methane (ODPM) rearrangement with high chemical and quantum efficiency. A comparison of the photochemical reactivity of $\beta$,${\gamma}$-unsaturated aldehydes and corresponding methyl ketones has shown that the ketones do not undergo the ODPM rearrangement while the corresponding aldehydes are reactive by this pathway. Monosubstituted $\beta$,${\gamma}$-unsaturated aldehydes at C-2 undergo the ODPM rearrangement yielding the corresponding cyclopropane carbaldehydes diastereoselectively. Finally, we have described the first examples of reactions, similar to the well know Norrish Type I process, which take place in the triplet excited state of $\beta$,${\gamma}$-unsaturated carbonyl compounds by excitation of the C-C double bond instead of the carbonyl group.
