Article Abstract
A sequential [1 + 2] annulation reaction of indolin-2-imines with α-aryl vinylsulfonium salts has been achieved for the first time, leading to a series of functionalized spiro[cyclopropane-1,3'-indolin]-2'-imines in 51-95% yields with high chemoselectivity and diastereoselectivity. The method is easy to manipulate, operates under mild conditions, and shows wide substrate scope with good functional group tolerance. Moreover, some of the selected spiro-annulated products exhibit promising anticancer activity against the A549 cell line, highlighting their potential for application in drug screening.

Herein, we report the first regio- and enantioselective synthesis of tetrahydropyrido[2,3-]pyrazines using a chiral iridacycle catalyst. Pyridyl diamines and diketones undergo sequential annulation and asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of the generated pyrido[2,3-]pyrazine intermediates. This method provides diverse fused N-heterocycles in high yields (up to 95%) and enantioselectivity (98.

The facile synthesis of indole-fused diazepinones via Rh(III)-catalyzed [4 + 3] annulation of indole derivatives with cyclopropyl alcohol by merging sequential C-H and C-C bond cleavage has been realized. Notably, the eight-membered diazocino[7,8,1-]indol-5-ones and seven-membered azepino[3,4-]indol-1(2)-ones could also be obtained via this tandem reaction strategy. This catalytic approach features mild reaction conditions, readily accessible starting materials, valuable products, and excellent atom-economy.

α-Diazo sulfonium salts constitute a unique subclass of diazo reagents that integrate diazo and sulfonium functionalities within a single molecular scaffold. While their reactivity via carbene, radical, or carbyne intermediates has been extensively investigated, the synthetic utility of their proton-activated dicationic species remains largely unexplored. Herein, we report a Brønsted acid-promoted, metal-free annulation of α-diazo sulfonium salts with binucleophilic α-vinylanilines.

The development of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) materials requires precisely engineered molecular architectures with tailored optoelectronic properties. Here, we present a strategy that synergistically integrates diversity-oriented synthesis (DOS) with virtual screening to systematically explore the chemical space of diaza-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (diaza-PAHs) for OLED applications. DOS, originally developed for drug discovery, serves as a powerful tool to generate structurally diverse molecular libraries, granting access to previously unexplored diaza-PAHs with potential OLED functionality.
