Ag(I)-catalyzed synthesis of diazo-trisubstituted furans starting from diazo-cumulated allenyl ketones has been investigated. The Rh(OAc)-catalyzed reaction of the diazo 2,3,5-trisubstituted furans provided penta-substituted aromatics via cascade intermolecular cyclopropanation/rearrangement/isomerization. The cyclopropanation on the furan ring/rearrangement of cyclopropane moiety has been reported. A reasonable mechanism is proposed.

Herein, we present a metal-free, concise, and efficient protocol for the intermolecular reaction of amides (lactams) with donor-acceptor α-diazo esters to afford the functionalized α-amino-α-aroylethanoates. -Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and ,-dimethylformamide (DMF) are employed as both reagents and solvents, allowing for the incorporation of all units into the products. The reaction is processed by the ester group migration and compatible with a broad range of substrates up to 50 examples.

Efficient access to pyranoisoquinoline derivatives via rhodium-catalyzed double C-H functionalization of phenyl oxadiazoles and diazo compounds has been developed. Two C-C bonds and one C-O and C-N bond formation was realized by this tandem reaction, along with the formation of two heterocycles, affording diversified pyran-fused isoquinolines in moderate to good yields with broad functional group tolerance under mild reaction conditions.

The biological formation of nitrogen-nitrogen (N-N) bonds represents intriguing reactions that have attracted much attention in the past decade. This interest has led to an increasing number of N-N bond-containing natural products (NPs) and related enzymes that catalyze their formation (referred to in this review as NNzymes) being elucidated and studied in greater detail. While more detailed information on the biosynthesis of N-N bond-containing NPs, which has only become available in recent years, provides an unprecedented source of biosynthetic enzymes, their potential for biocatalytic applications has been minimally explored.

By leveraging the fast oxidative addition of arylthianthrenium salts (aryl-TT) to palladium(0), a regioselective diazoester installation has been developed. This approach enables the introduction of a diazo moiety to densely functionalized arenes at a late stage. The installed diazo group is amenable to facile further derivatization.

It is well established that the confinement of reactants to two dimensions influences their reactivity. However, such confinement is often dominated by charge transfer effects between the reactants and the confining walls, in particular if the walls are conductive. Also, the reactivity of carbenes on metal surfaces is significantly affected by the charge transfer between the carbene and the metal, rendering the carbene more nucleophilic or electrophilic.
