A Rh(III)-catalyzed synthesis of bicyclic [1,3,5]triazinones from a diverse array of imines coupled with ethyl (pivaloyloxy)carbamate is reported. The preparation of [5,6]- and [6,6]-bicyclic heterocycles substituted with aryl, alkyl, and alkoxy groups demonstrated a broad reaction scope. The efficiency of this approach was further enhanced with the development of a three-component variant featuring in situ imine formation. X-ray crystallographic characterization of a rhodacycle formed by imidoyl C-H activation provides support for the proposed mechanism.

An efficient Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H activation of azobenzenes and subsequent [4+1] cascade annulation with CF-imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides was developed, yielding diverse CF-indazoles. This protocol featured easily available starting materials, excellent functional group tolerance and high efficiency. Moreover, the antitumor activities of selected CF-indazoles against human cancer cell lines were also studied, and the results indicated that several compounds displayed considerable antiproliferative activities.

A condition-controlled Rh(III)-catalyzed selective synthesis of CF-substituted indoles and pyrido[2,1-]isoindoles from 2-arylpyridines and CF-imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides has been developed. The Cp*Rh(MeCN)(SbF)/HFIP system afforded CF-substituted indoles via triple C-H activation, while the [Cp*RhCl]/MeCN condition selectively furnished CF-substituted pyrido[2,1-]isoindoles through C-H [4 + 1] annulation. The notable advantages of this developed method included readily available starting materials, broad substrate scope, and excellent chemoselectivity.

An efficient synthesis of continuously substituted quinoline derivatives palladium-catalyzed intramolecular 6- imidoylative cyclization of -alkenyl aryl isocyanides with (hetero)aryl halides or vinylic triflates has been developed. The reaction proceeds through the concerted metalation-deprotonation (CMD) mechanism by activation of a vinyl C-H bond with imidoylpalladium assisted by the carboxylate.

A palladium-catalyzed [4 + 1] annulation of -arylimidoyl chlorides with β-keto esters has been developed. In the presence of Pd(OAc), PCy, and KPO, a variety of fluoalkyl-containing -arylimidoyl chlorides smoothly underwent the cascade C-H imidoylation/deacylative Heck-type reactions to afford biologically important 2-fluoroalkyl indoles in moderate to good yields.

Presented herein are novel syntheses of CF-isoquinolinones and imidazole fused CF-isoquinolinones based on the cascade reactions of 2-aryloxazolines with trifluoromethyl imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides. The formation of CF-isoquinolinone involves an intriguing cascade process including oxazolinyl group-assisted aryl alkylation through C(sp)-H bond metalation, carbene formation, migratory insertion, and proto-demetalation followed by intramolecular condensation and water-promoted oxazolinyl ring-scission. With this method, the isoquinolinone scaffold tethered with valuable functional groups was effectively constructed.
