An interesting stereo- and chemoselective cyclization reaction of several N-sulfonyl ketimines as C/N-donors with a variety of α,β-unsaturated sulfonyl fluorides promoted by DBU is reported. This substrate-dependent selective C-C vs. C-N bond cyclization process leads to important classes of trans-cyclopropane and fused dihydropyrrole scaffolds in satisfactory yields with excellent diastereoselectivities (dr up to ≤99 : 1). High-yield single-stage synthesis of biologically interesting sulfamate-fused-pyrrole and 2-pyrrolyl phenol derivatives was successfully established.

Photoinduced Difluoromethylation Cyclization to Generate Medium-Sized Difluoro-benzo[]azepines.

Compared with the energetically favorable 5- or 6-membered fluoro-functionalized heterocycles, the construction of medium-sized fluoro-heterocycles is relatively under-researched because of their inherently unfavorable enthalpic and entropic nature. Based on rational design and DFT calculations, a novel photocatalytic difluoromethyl radical-initiated intramolecular 7--trig cyclization was realized, thus affording a sustainable route for the synthesis of challenging fluoro-functionalized medium-sized -heterocycles. Depending on atomic dipole moment corrected Hirshfeld population (ADCH) charge calculations, the chemoselective 6--trig radical cyclizations were further replenished.

In the dyotropic rearrangement of molecules with semiflexible structures, characterized by a freely rotating static C-C bond, the formation of a mixture of products is common due to the coexistence of several energetically comparable conformers. Herein, we report that it is possible to modulate the shifting groups by adjusting the metal's coordination sphere in Pd-based dyotropic rearrangement. In the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(II) salt, the reaction of γ-hydroxyalkenes or γ,δ-dihydroxyalkenes with Selectfluor affords fluorinated tetrahydropyranols or 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.

Capturing CO is highly valued in the field of organic synthesis, especially underdeveloped dual-CO conversion. In this study, we detail a novel reductive cyclization of 2-indolylanilines with dual CO as a difunctional reagent in the presence of PMHS [poly(methylhydrosiloxane)], delivering methyl-substituted quinoxalines. Furthermore, another chemoselective cyclization with 2-pyrrolylanilines is also realized by converting mono-CO.

The Pd-catalyzed multicomponent tandem reaction of β-ketonitriles, arylboronic acids and DMSO was efficiently developed, enabling access to a variety of poly substituted pyridines. The protocol shows excellent chemoselectivity, generating nicotinonitriles or symmetrical tetrasubstituted pyridines under different conditions by tandem cyclization of enaminone intermediates with β-ketonitriles or enolates, respectively, and does not require extra ammonias. This method boasts notable advantages, such as the use of commercially available or easily prepared substrates, simple conditions, a broad substrate scope, and good functional group tolerance.
