A four-step regioselective synthesis of multisubstituted isoquinoline derivatives from 3-bromopyridines was developed by the Diels-Alder (DA) reactions of 2-silyl-3,4-pyridynes with furans, followed by functional-group transformations. In particular, the silyl group at the C2-position of the 3,4-pyridynes played two important roles: firstly, it functioned as the directing group for the DA reaction, and secondly, it served to introduce diverse substituents at the C1-position of the isoquinolines by electrophilic ipso-substitution.

A catalyst and additive-free [2+1] annulation of 3-alkenyl-oxindoles with CF-imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides (TFISYs) for the construction of spiro 3,3'-cyclopropyl oxindoles has been achieved. A cascade intermolecular Micheal-addition reaction and intramolecular nucleophilic substitution sequence might be involved in the transformation, which afforded a wide range of multisubstituted spiro 3,3'-cyclopropyl oxindole products with high efficiency and diastereoselectivity.

A novel and efficient method for the synthesis of multisubstituted arylnitriles TfO-mediated [3 + 2 + 1] benzannulation of enaminones and acylacetonitriles has been developed. This reaction proceeds under mild conditions with excellent functional group compatibility. Mechanistic studies have revealed that the cyclization involves two consecutive nucleophilic additions, followed by a cascade Knoevenagel condensation and aromatization.

We present a Pd-IPent-catalyzed ring-opening defluorinative annulation reaction of -difluorocyclopropanes with enamides, which provides a convenient and efficient strategy for the synthesis of multisubstituted -H pyrrole derivatives. This transformation selectively cleaves the C-C bond, two C-F bonds, and the C-N bond in a one-pot procedure. Additionally, this protocol allows for the modification of several bioactive molecules.

The catalytic hydrosilylation of alkynes with hydrosilanes is the most straightforward and atom-efficient method for the synthesis of silylalkenes. However, the hydrosilylation of unsymmetrical internal alkynes often encounters regio- and stereoselectivity challenges. Herein, we report the regio- and syn-stereoselective hydrosilylation of unsymmetrical internal alkynes bearing heteroatom functional groups with hydrosilanes by half-sandwich scandium catalyst.
