A chemoselectivity switchable microflow reaction was developed to generate reactive and unstable intermediates. The switchable chemoselectivity of this reaction enables a selection for one of two different intermediates, an aryllithium or a benzyl lithium, at will from the same starting material. Starting from bromo-substituted styrenes, the aryllithium intermediates were converted to the substituted styrenes, whereas the benzyl lithium intermediates were engaged in an anionic polymerization. These chemoselectivity-switchable reactions can be integrated to produce polymers that cannot be formed during typical polymerization reactions.

A comprehensive and effective electrochemical methodology is introduced for the diverse hydrodechlorination of -dichlorocyclopropanes and the ring cleavage hydrodefluorination of -difluorocyclopropanes under uniform electrochemical conditions. Moreover, the water content allows for the adjustable monohydrodechlorination or dihydrodechlorination of -dichlorocyclopropanes with exceptional chemoselectivity. Additionally, the mildness and practicality of this protocol facilitate its application to the late-stage functionalization of bioactive molecules.

Functionalized isocyanide chemistry represents an important research area in organic synthesis. A structurally unique 2-isocyanophenyl propargylic ester has been designed to incorporate the reactivity of isocyanide and propargylic ester functionalities. Thus, the reaction of 2-isocyanophenyl propargylic ester and 2-aminoaromatic aldimine facilitates the synthesis of a wide range of polycyclic benzo[b] indolo [3,2-h][1,6] naphthyridine derivatives.

In this study, we have disclosed N-alkylation and C-alkylation reactions of 2-oxindoles with secondary alcohols. Interestingly, these chemoselective reactions are tunable by changing the reaction conditions. Utilization of protic solvent and Brønsted acid catalyst afforded C-alkylation, whereas, aprotic solvent and Lewis acid catalyst afforded N-alkylation of 2-oxindoles in good to excellent yields.
