RESUMO
A base-promoted olefin skeletal rearrangement strategy from para-quinone methides (p-QMs) and N-fluoroarenesulfonamides is reported, enabling direct nitrogen insertion of olefins to produce a series of multiarylated (Z)-N-sulfonyl amidines with complete stereoselectivity and generally good yields. Using p-QMs without o-hydroxy substituents gave triarylated N-sulfonyl amidines, whereas tetraarylated N,N'-disulfonyl amidines were synthesized with the existence of o-hydroxy groups.
RESUMO
A novel gold(I)/Brønsted acid relay catalysis enabling azofuran activation to induce annulative rearrangement from 3-yne-1,2-diols and aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborates is reported, producing a series of furan-2-yl-substituted pyrrol-2-ones bearing a quaternary carbon center with good yields. Exchanging aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborate for azofuran led to skeletally identical but substituent-diverse furan-2-yl-containing pyrrol-2-ones with good yields, supporting the key azofuran activation and annulative rearrangement by gold/Brønsted acid relay catalysis.
RESUMO
A new gold(I) self-relay catalysis reaction enabling the annulative oxygenation of propargylic alcohols with various O-nucleophiles, such as carboxylic acids, alcohols and TBHP, is reported, producing a series of functionalized benzofurans in moderate to good yields under mild conditions. This protocol benefits from the π- and σ-Lewis acid capability of gold complexes, demonstrating high molecular convergence, broad substrate flexibility, high functional group compatibility and mild conditions.
RESUMO
A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric annulative allylic alkylation reaction of 2-[(1H-indol-2-yl)methyl]malonates with (E)-but-2-ene-1,4-diyl dicarbonates is described, leading to the regio- and enantioselective synthesis of dihydropyrido[1,2-a]indoles with a chiral cyclic allyl stereocenter adjacent to the ring-junction nitrogen atom in moderate to good yields. The salient features of this protocol include mild conditions, a broad substrate scope, and good compatibility with substituents as well as high regio- and stereoselectivities, providing a catalytic asymmetric entry for fabricating chiral pyridoindole scaffolds.

The Schmidt rearrangement, a reaction that enables C-C or C-H σ bond cleavage and nitrogen insertion across an aldehyde or ketone substrate, is one of the most important and widely used synthetic tools for the installation of amides and nitriles. However, such a reaction frequently requires volatile, potentially explosive, and highly toxic azide reagents as the nitrogen donor, thus limiting its application to some extent. Here, we show a Schmidt-type reaction where aryldiazonium salts act as the nitrogen precursor and in-situ-generated cyclopenta-1,4-dien-1-yl acetates serve as pronucleophiles from gold-catalyzed Nazarov cyclization of 1,3-enyne acetates. Noteworthy is that cycloketone-derived 1,3-enyne acetates enabled ring-expansion relay to access a series of 2-pyridone-containing fused heterocycles, in which nonsymmetric cycloketone-derived counterparts demonstrated high regioselectivity. Aside from investigating the scope of this Schmidt-type reaction, mechanistic details of this transformation are provided by performing systematic theoretical calculations.

A new electrochemical selective annulative amino-ketalization and amino-oxygenation of 1,6-enynes with disulfonimides and alcohols is reported, producing a series of functionalized benzofurans under catalyst- and oxidant-free conditions. The annulative aminoketalization proceeds with simple short-chain alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and n-propanol as O-nucleophilic reagents, while the reaction occurs in the annulative aminooxygenation direction in the presence of water and large steric sec-butyl alcohol (SBA).

A novel metal-free nitrative bicyclization of 1,7-diynes with tBuONO in the presence of H2O is reported, producing three types of skeletally diverse tricyclic pyrroles, namely pyrrolo[3,4-c]quinolines, chromeno[3,4-c]pyrroles and benzo[e]isoindoles, with moderate to good yields by simply tuning the linkers of the 1,7-diynes. This domino protocol demonstrates remarkable compatibility regarding 1,7-diynes with different linkers, such as nitrogen and oxygen atoms and a hydroxymethyl group, and tBuONO plays dual roles as a nitro precursor as well as a nitrogen atom source.

A concise copper catalysis strategy for the addition-cyclization of cyclic oxime esters across 1,6-enynes with high stereoselectivity to generate 1-indanones bearing an all-carbon quaternary center is reported. In this process, single-electron reduction of cyclic oxime esters enables deconstructive carbon-carbon cleavage to provide a key cyanopropyl radical poised for the addition-cyclization. This reaction is redox-neutral, exhibits good functional group compatibility, and features 100% atomic utilization. This process driven by copper catalyst makes readily available cyclic oxime esters as bifunctional reagents to demonstrate convergent synthesis.
RESUMO
A new and green route to skeletally diverse oxo-heterocyclic architectures such as pyrano[3,4-c]chromen-2-ones and pyrano[3,4-c]quinolin-2-ones is reported via an unprecedented photocatalytic Kharasch-type cyclization/1,5-(SNâ³)-substitution/elimination/6π-electrocyclization/double nucleophilic substitution cascade starting from easily available heteroatom-linked 1,7-diynes and low-cost CBrCl3. During this reaction process, the full scission of carbon-halogen bonds of BrCCl3 was realized to directly build two new rings, including a lactone scaffold, using H2O as the oxygen source of the ester group.
RESUMO
A new copper/silver-co-mediated three-component bicyclization of benzene-linked 1,6-enynes with ICF2CO2Et with TMSN3 was reported, and used to produce a wide range of hitherto unreported difluorinated tetrahydroindeno[1,2-c]azepine-3,6-diones with moderate to good yields. The mechanistic pathway consists of radical-induced 1,6-addition-cyclization, oxidative addition, reductive elimination, nitrene insertion and N-O cleavage, resulting in continuous multiple bond-forming events including C-C and C-N bonds to build up a 6/5/7 tricyclic framework.
RESUMO
New tunable catalytic [2+2] cycloaddition/silane-mediated conjugate transfer reductions of yne-allenones have been developed, by which substituent-diverse cyclobutarenes with generally good yields were selectively synthesized by adjusting Fe-H and Cu-H catalytic systems. Use of the Fe-H system triggers 1,6-conjugate reduction to dihydrocyclobuta[a]naphthalen-4-ols whereas the Cu-H complex enables 1,4-conjugate reduction to cyclobuta[a]naphthalen-4(2H)-ones.
RESUMO
A new Lewis acid-catalyzed [2 + 2] cycloaddition/retroelectrocyclization (CA-RE)/1,6-addition relay of aurone-derived 1-azadienes and 1-alkynylnaphthalen-2-ols has been reported, leading to the regio- and diastereoselective synthesis of 1,2-dihydrobenzofuro[3,2-b]pyridine with a chiral carbon center and an axial chirality in good yields. This protocol enables the C-C double-bond scission/recombination to rapidly construct aza-heterocyclic architectures and features 100% atom utilization, a wide substrate scope, good compatibility with substituents, and excellent diastereoselectivity.
RESUMO
Tunable electrocatalytic annulation reactions of o-arylalkynylanilines have been established, leading to green and divergent syntheses of skeletally diverse indoles by adjusting the electrolytes and the solvents. The presence of ammonium halides as the electrolytes enabled the halogenation of o-arylalkynylanilines to give C3-halogenated indoles whereas naphtho[1',2':4,5]furo[3,2-b]indoles could be obtained by changing the electrolyte from ammonium halides to KI. Interestingly, by combining acetone as the solvent and both NH4I and NH4Cl as the electrolytes, the reaction worked through an intramolecular annulation and [5 + 1] cyclization cascade to form naphtho[1',2':5,6][1,3]oxazino[3,4-a]indoles.

A new and general photocatalytic Kharasch-type addition/1,5-(SN'')-substitution cascade of 1,7-diynes with alkyl halides such as BrCCl3 and CBr4 was reported for the first time, and used to produce 65 hitherto unreported ß-gem-dihalovinyl ketones/aldehydes with moderate to excellent yields in a highly regioselective manner. This reaction tolerates a wide scope of substrates, which offers a green and efficient entry to fabricate synthetically important ß-gem-dihalovinyl carbonyl scaffolds. Notably, the late-stage application of these resulting ß-gem-dihalovinyl carbonyls shows high and unique reactivity profiles and demonstrates the versatility of their derivatization.
RESUMO
Two classes of new catalytic spiroannulation-fluormethylfunctionaliztions of para-quinone methide (p-QM)-containing 1,5-enynes have been established under redox-neutral conditions. Palladium-catalyzed spiroannulation-iododifluoromethylation with ethyl difluoroiodoacetate oriented completely stereoselective access to (Z)-spiroindenes and the latter included copper-catalyzed three-component spiroannulation-cyanotrifluoromethylation starting from Togni's reagent and trimethylsilanecarbonitrile (TMSCN). Both reaction pathways involve fluoroalkyl radical-triggered 1,6-addition/5-exo-dig annulation/metal radical cross-coupling/reductive elimination sequence, providing practical and stereoselective protocols for rapidly constructing cyclohexadienone-containing spiroindenes with generally good yields.
RESUMO
The combination of Pd(TFA)2 and an N,N'-disulfonyl bisimidazoline ligand shows high catalytic activity and excellent asymmetric induction in the addition of arylboronic acids to cyclic N-sulfonyl ketimines including benzo[d]isothiazole-1,1-dioxides, benzo[e][1,2,3]oxathiazine-2,2-dioxides, and 1,2,5-thiadiazole-1,1-dioxides, by which three types of chiral quaternary carbon-containing sultams with substantial substitution diversity were synthesized with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee). The current catalysis demonstrated a remarkable tolerance to oxygen and thus provided an operationally simple approach for constructing enantioenriched cyclic quaternary stereocenters.
RESUMO
A new organocatalytic bicyclization of α-alkynylnaphthalen-2-ols with nitrones was first reported, leading to the convergent synthesis of polycyclic indoles with substantial substitution diversity in generally good yields through scission of the N-O bond of nitrones via [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement. This transformation showcases the use of a quinine catalyst in a complicated cascade system that has been shown to effectively construct polycyclic heterocycles via alkyne difunctionalization.
RESUMO
A catalytic 1,6-nucleophilic addition/annulation cascade was developed for the first time, and used to produce 27 hitherto unreported ethylene-linked 1-naphthol-imidazole pairs with generally good yields and complete stereoselectivity. An Ag2O-catalyzed reaction of yne-allenone esters with tosylmethyl isocyanide proceeded efficiently, and provided a simple and convergent protocol for the synthesis of fully substituted (Z)-ethylenes whereas tetrasubstituted (E)-ethylenes were obtained when ethyl isocyanoacetate was employed in this transformation. The reaction pathway consists of [2+2] cycloaddition, 1,6-nucleophilic addition and [3+2] cycloaddition, leading to continuous multiple bond-forming events including C-C and C-N bonds to construct complex molecules.
RESUMO
A new Cu(II)-catalyzed annulation-cyanotrifluoromethylation of 1,6-enynes with Togni's reagent and trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN) has been established, enabling the direct construction of trifluoromethylated 1-indanones with an all-carbon quaternary center in good yields. This reaction was performed by using low-cost Cu(OTf)2 as the catalyst and Togni's reagent as both the radical initiator and a CF3 source, providing an efficient protocol for building up an 1-indanone framework with wide functional group compatibility. The reaction mechanism was proposed through a radical triggered addition/5-exo-dig cyclization/oxidation/nucleophilic cascade.
RESUMO
A new electrochemical three-component annulation-iodosulfonylation of 1,5-enyne-containing para-quinone methides (p-QMs) has been established by using available arylsulfonyl hydrazides and potassium iodide under environmentally benign conditions. The electrosynthesis offers sustainable and efficient access to construct spirocyclohexadienone-containing (E)-indenes without any additional catalyst or oxidant through a sulfonyl-radical-triggered 1,6-addition and an I+-mediated ipso-cyclization cascade. Notably, potassium iodide plays the triple role of an electrolyte, a redox catalyst, as well as an iodination reagent.
