Article Abstract

Domino cascade reactions, which can construct multiple bonds in one pot, are efficient methods to synthesize N-heterocycles and other useful skeletons. Herein, we report an expedient synthesis of polysubstituted benzo[][1,5]naphthyridine via Mn(III)-mediated C-C bond cleavage of cyclopropanols. These reactions were initiated by addition of β-carbonyl radicals, generated from cyclopropyl alcohols in the presence of Mn(III), to 2-(2-isocyanophenyl)acetonitriles to give quinolin-3-amines, which went through intramolecular cyclizations and dehydrogenation to give the final products.

We report the simple synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles using three versatile building blocks: benzaldehydes, -phenylenediamines, and phenylpropiolic acid. The protocol facilitates the formation of three C-N bonds and one Csp-Csp bond in a one-pot reaction and yields novel products that have not been previously synthesized.

Our work introduces a facile and efficient metal-free [3+3] annulation approach for the synthesis of polysubstituted pyridines via the reaction between β-enaminonitriles and β,β-dichloromethyl peroxides. This strategy operates under mild conditions, demonstrating broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the reaction proceeds through a Kornblum-De La Mare rearrangement followed by SV-type C-Cl bond cleavage and intramolecular cyclization/condensation.

Phenols and their derivatives are highly relevant motifs in pharmaceuticals, natural products, and other functional materials. Conventional strategies for phenol synthesis rely on classical aromatic functionalization, which is often dictated by electronic and steric factors. Herein, we report an alternative approach for phenol synthesis where irradiation in the presence of Lewis or Brønsted acids enables the selective migration of alkyl and aryl groups from meta to either the ortho or para positions.

The exponential rise in resistance to pesticides and conventional antibiotics is another important factor propelling the development of novel medicines and substances with insecticidal efficacy. One approach to this experiment is to look at novel families of insecticidal compounds with different mechanisms of action. Consequently, a one-pot four-component synthesis involving benzil, aryl carbaldehydes, CHCOONH and N,N-dimethylpropane-1,3-diamine, and/or 1-aminopropan-2-ol was used to successfully synthesize polysubstituted imidazoles 5a-5j.
