The asymmetric organocatalyzed diversity-oriented one-pot synthesis has been developed to construct chroman-2-one derivatives and other heterocyclic compounds with excellent efficiency and stereoselectivity. The reactions represent a challenging issue, since it altered the inherent selectivity profiles exhibited by the substrates of 2-hydroxycinnamaldehyde 1 and trans-β-nitrostyrene 2, which was previously reported as the asymmetric oxa-Michael-Michael cascade to generate chiral chromans. It should be noted that polycyclic O,O-acetal-containing compounds, which are found in numerous natural products and biologically interesting molecules, could also be achieved in good yields with excellent enantioselectivity as a single diastereoisomer with five continuous stereogenic centers.

Objective: In search of efficient anticancer agents, we aimed at the design and synthesis of a library of tetrasubstituted alkenes. These are structural analogues of tamoxifen, one of the widely used anticancer therapeutics.
Methods: Our small organic compound library was prepared via a chemical synthesis in the solution using the Larock three-component coupling reaction, which is known to tolerate diverse functional groups.

In this contribution, a novel, simple, diastereoselective and environmentally benign two-step diversity-oriented synthesis of imidazo[4,5,1-]quinolines is described for the first time. The synthesis of the target compounds involves a deep eutectic solvent-mediated one-pot Povarov reaction leading to the obtention of 8-nitrotetrahydroquinolines, followed by a microwave-assisted reductive cyclocondensation employing different aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes. The target compounds were obtained in up to 70% overall yield starting from commercially available -nitroanilines, natural phenylpropanoids (-anethole and -isoeugenol) and aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes.

A diversity-oriented, multicomponent convergent synthesis of symmetrical triazines through a one-pot protocol is presented in this research project. The assembly of trisubstituted triazines was initially carried out using easily available reagents through three different protocols, i.e.

A novel one-pot pseudo-three-component reaction of 2-amino-4-chromen-4-ones with 4-benzylidene-5-alkyl-2-aryl-2,4-dihydro-3-pyrazol-3-ones was investigated for the synthesis of the spiro[chromeno[2,3-]pyridine-3,4'-pyrazole] derivatives. This procedure involved Michael addition, elimination, and hetero-Diels-Alder sequences, affording a series of spiropyrazolone-chromeno[2,3-]pyridines in good yields that possessed relationships between two aryl groups and the carbonyl of the pyrazolone unit.

Divergent nitrogen-containing fused polycyclic ring systems are constructed from simple starting materials via a one-pot aldehyde-alkyne-amine (A) coupling and intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction. This domino reaction directly furnishes linear 5/5/5 and 5/5/6, or nonlinear 5/5/6/5, polycyclic rings containing an oxa-bridged fused 5/5 bicycle and a 1,6-enyne substructure. One-step derivation of the oxa-bridged 5/5 bicycle leads to a polyfunctionalized 5/5 bicycle with tetrahydrofuran fused back-to-back to pyrroline or a 6/5 bicycle with the hexahydro-1H-isoindole structure, while cycloisomerizing the enyne substructure adds an extra fused 5-membered ring to afford functionalized linear 5/5/5/5 or 5/5/5/5/5 fused ring systems from selected substrates.
