Article Abstract
A highly diastereoselective annulation of simple aldehydes and 5-alkenyl thiazolones, via oxidative NHC catalysis has been developed. This strategy provides facile access to a diverse library of functionalized chiral thiazolo pyrones. Aerobic oxygen can also be applied as a secondary oxidant to avoid the use of stoichiometric organic or inorganic oxidants.

In this work, we report a novel I-mediated ring-opening -difunctionalization of cyclopropyl alcohols with enaminones for the first time. The selective [3 + 2] annulation instead of [3 + 3] annulation under metal-free conditions enables a straightforward and efficient synthesis of structurally important 2,4-diacylpyrroles. Notably, this methodology dispenses with metal catalysts, proceeds under mild reaction conditions, and features not only simple operation but also suitability for gram-scale preparation and late-stage functionalization of complex bioactive molecules.

A significant advancement has been made in the dimerization and cyclization of styrenes in one step to construct nitrogen-containing heterocyclic skeletons. Herein, we report a novel [2+2+1] dimerization annulation of styrenes and TMSN via Schmidt rearrangement, enabling straightforward access to 1-pyrrolines from the most easily available materials. Different from 5--trig cyclization, this strategy not only obviated the needs of an oxidant, a metal, and presynthesis but also possessed simple and green operations.

A novel, annulative endoperoxidation of tetronate derivatives bearing unsaturated side chains is presented. The reaction requires a simple setup and proceeds under mild conditions to generate tricyclic endoperoxides in modest diastereoselectivities and useful yields. A free-radical mechanism is proposed.

A base-controlled rhodium(III)-catalyzed regioselective C-H alkylation and annulation of 2-arylindoles with α-Cl ketones in a single catalytic system is described, in which α-Cl ketones serve as C(sp)-based electrophilic partners and oxidized alkyne equivalents. When using NaOAc as the base, the C-H functionalization selectively delivered 1-aryl-2-(2-aryl-1-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-ones. In contrast, the same catalytic system with the base NaHCO predominately provided 5-aryl-11-benzo[]carbazoles.

We report a cobalt-catalyzed cascade [4 + 2] annulation of the C(sp)-H/N-H bonds in indolecarboxamides with alkenes, facilitated by an 8-aminoquinoline directing group. This reaction represents the first example employing simple olefins as substrates to directly construct the γ-carbolinone motif. Furthermore, it exhibits broad substrate scope and excellent regioselectivity, achieving high yields with various unactivated alkenes, even bulky octadecene.
