A highly diastereoselective annulation of simple aldehydes and 5-alkenyl thiazolones, via oxidative NHC catalysis has been developed. This strategy provides facile access to a diverse library of functionalized chiral thiazolo pyrones. Aerobic oxygen can also be applied as a secondary oxidant to avoid the use of stoichiometric organic or inorganic oxidants.

The direct construction of polycyclic arenes through ring formation using simple building blocks is highly appealing but remains challenging in organic chemistry. In this study, we introduce an efficient cascade reaction that combines dearomatizing photocyclization with oxidative aromatization, driven by organophotocatalysis. Conducted under mild, transition-metal-free conditions, this reaction seamlessly converts styrene derivatives into a diverse array of functionalized polycyclic aromatic compounds with good yields and regioselectivity.

A photoredox-promoted cascade glycosylation/cyclization reaction of 2-isocyanobiaryls and glycosyl NHP esters was established for the synthesis of nonclassical heteroaryl C-glycosides. This methodology is characterized by an exceedingly simple reaction system, high diastereoselectivity, and good functional group tolerance. In contrast to traditional strategies, this innovative approach circumvents the need for high temperature, transition metal, and photocatalyst, offering an environmentally friendly and efficient protocol.

The ever-increasing demand in chemical biology and medicinal research requires the development of new synthetic methods for the rapid construction of libraries of heterocycles from simple raw materials. In this context, the utilization of primary amines or HO as the simple - or -sources in the assembly of a heterocyclic ring skeleton is highly desirable from the viewpoint of atom- and step-economy. Herein, we describe a highly efficient three-component reaction of diazo, allylic diacetates, and commercially available anilines (or HO) to access structurally diverse pyrrolidine and tetrahydrofuran derivatives.

A remarkably simple and efficient double defluorinative [3 + 3] annulation approach involving -phenyl-α-fluoro-α-phenylsulfonylacetamide and 2-CF-alkenes to access -phenyl-3,6-difluoropyridone derivatives has been achieved. The key to the success of this single-step synthesis of difluoropyridones is the strategic utilization of 2-CF-alkenes for consecutive allylic and vinylic substitution reactions and a desulfonylation cascade. We could also show that these difluoropyridones serve as a versatile platform for C-6-selective defluorinative functionalizations.
