A copper-catalyzed propargylic [3+2] cycloaddition of simple alkynes with β-ketoesters through the propargylic C(sp3)-H functionalization has been realized. Under catalysis by CuI in combination with 1,10-phenanthroline hydrate as the ligand and Ag2CO3 as a bifunctional reagent (oxidant and base), the reaction proceeds smoothly with a broad substrate scope, thus providing a variety of highly functionalized furans in moderate to high yields. This represents the first successful example of the catalytic propargylic cycloaddition of simple alkynes with bisnucleophiles based on the propargylic C(sp3)-H functionalization strategy.

A simple, rapid, and visual approach is developed to perform diagnosis of urinary tract infection (UTI) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) by employing smart bifunctional DNA (bfDNA) sensors, exonuclease III, concatermers of CuO nanoparticles (CuONPs), and gold NPs (AuNPs) aggregation [AuNPs agglutination (AA)], namely, the bfDEC-AA method. The bfDNA sensors serve as probes for identifying 16S rRNA genes of bacterium or 18S rRNA of fungus and as mediators connecting the concatermers of CuONPs. The AA as a signal source is triggered by Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition click chemistry.

Asymmetric cycloaddition is a straightforward strategy which enables the synthesis of structurally distinct cyclic derivatives which are difficult to access by other methodologies, using an efficient and atom-economical path from simple precursors. In recent years several asymmetric catalytic cyclization strategies have been accomplished for the construction of -heterocycles using various catalytic systems such as chiral metal catalysts, chiral Lewis acids or chiral organocatalysts. This review presents an overview of the recent advances in enantioselective cyclization reactions of 1-azadienes catalyzed by non-covalent organocatalysts.
