Article Abstract
The fragile intermediates of the domino process leading to an isoxazolidin-5-one, triggered by unique reactivity between Meldrum's acid and an N-benzyl nitrone in the presence of a Brønsted base, were determined thanks to the softness and accuracy of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry coupled to ion mobility spectrometry (ESI-IMS-MS). The combined DFT study shed light on the overall organocatalytic sequence that starts with a stepwise (3+2) annulation reaction that is followed by a decarboxylative protonation sequence encompassing a stereoselective pathway issue.

An iron(III)-catalyzed methanesulfonic-acid-mediated [3 + 2 + 1C] annulation of enaminones assembling a 1,2-dihydropyridine (1,2-DHP) scaffold has been developed for the first time. This approach facilitates the rapid synthesis of 2-hydroxy-1,2-DHP derivatives in moderate to excellent yields with a broad substrate scope under mild conditions. The employment of 1,3-dioxolane as both a 1C synthon and solvent enables simultaneous incorporation of both a carbon atom and a hydroxy group into 1,2-DHPs.

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 silver-catalyzed intermolecular (3 + 2) annulation of siloxy alkynes and 3-aminooxetanes has been developed. This process provides mild and convenient access to useful γ-butyrolactams with high regio- and stereoselectivity. Mechanistically, intermolecular C-N bond formation likely precedes oxetane ring opening.

Pd-catalyzed straight forward [3+2] cycloaddition reaction between spirovinylcyclopropyl-2-oxindole and coumarin/bioisosteres is demonstrated. The resultant products spirooxindolyl-cyclopentane[c]chromanones and structural analogues are obtained in up to 97% yields and > 99:1 dr. The target spirooxindole-cyclopentane architectures with four contiguous stereocenters with high diastereocontrol is differentially influenced by inexpensive 2,2'-bipyridyl ligand and greener solvent EtOH.

This study presents a phosphine-catalyzed [3 + 2] annulation of sulfamidate imine-derived 1-azadienes with Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) carbonates or allenoates, affording densely functionalized spiro[oxathiazole-cyclopentene] architectures under mild reaction conditions in generally high yields and excellent diastereoselectivities. Through a reductive ring contraction sequence of the spirocyclic thiosulfamide, valuable spirocyclic aziridine derivatives were accessed conveniently via both two-step and one-pot protocols.
