Transition-metal-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] annulation of alkynes is an efficient pathway for the synthesis of aromatic compounds. However, most of the established methods require noble metal catalysts. Herein, we report a copper-catalyzed intermolecular [2 + 2 + 2] annulation of diynes with alkynes through vinyl cation intermediates, enabling the atom-economical preparation of biologically important carbazole skeletons.

The chemical recycling of polystyrene (PS) waste to value-added aromatic compounds is an attractive but formidable challenge due to the inertness of the C-C bonds in the polymer backbone. Here we develop a light-driven, copper-catalyzed protocol to achieve aerobic oxidation of various alkylarenes or real-life PS waste to benzoic acid and oxidized styrene oligomers. The resulting oligomers can be further transformed under heating conditions, thus achieving benzoic acid in up to 65% total yield through an integrated one-pot two-step procedure.

The general synthesis of chiral unnatural aromatic amino acids has rarely been reported. We herein describe a visible light-promoted copper-catalyzed enantioselective C(sp)-H benzylation of glycine derivatives. The method demonstrated compatibility in coupling various -hydroxyphthalimide (NHP) esters derived from aromatic acids with glycine derivatives, providing a general protocol for synthesizing analogues of phenylalanine, tryptophan, and tyrosine.

In this study, 5-(2-bromoaryl)tetrazoles were reacted with 1,3-diketones in DMF in the presence of a catalytic amount of magnetic Cu-MOF-74 (FeO@SiO@Cu-MOF-74) and a base under microwave irradiation to yield the corresponding 1-aminoisoquinolines. The FeO@SiO@Cu-MOF-74 catalyst could be easily recovered from the reaction mixture and reused four times without any significant loss of catalytic activity. An initial copper-catalyzed C(sp)-C(sp) bond formation accompanied by -Claisen deacylative cyclocondensation (for acyclic 1,3-diketones) and direct cyclocondensation (for cyclohexane-1,3-diones) is proposed as a key reaction pathway for this process.
