A Cu(ii)/bisoxazoline ligand-promoted formal [4 + 1] cycloaddition of diazo esters with azoalkenes formed has been developed. This strategy provides a potential protocol for the construction of dihydropyrazoles containing a quaternary center with good to excellent yields.

A novel copper-catalyzed formal diastereoselective [4 + 3] cycloaddition of 2-arylaziridines and 2-substituted cyclopentadiene was developed. This transformation provided an efficient protocol for the assembly of a highly strained bridged azabicyclo[3.2.

Herein, we present a visible-light-induced protocol for the synthesis of highly functionalized oxo-bridged oxocine skeletons. This method generates carbenes via visible-light-induced ortho-acyl diazo compounds, which are rapidly intercepted by the oxygen atom of an intermolecular acyl group to form a cyclic 1,3-dipole. The in situ generated highly reactive 1,3-dipole undergoes a facile formal [4 + 3] cycloaddition with alkenyl pyrazolinone, yielding [4.

Skeleton editing for heteroarenes, especially pyrazoles, is challenging and remains scarce because these non-strained aromatics exhibit inert reactivities, making them relatively inactive for performing a dearomatization/cleavage sequence. Here, we disclose a cycloaddition-induced scaffold hopping of 5-hydroxypyrazoles to access the pyrazolopyridopyridazin-6-one skeleton through a single-operation protocol. By converting a five-membered aza-arene into a five-unit spine of a 6/6 fused-bicyclic, this work unlocks a ring-opening reactivity of the pyrazole core that involves a formal C = N bond cleavage while retaining the highly reactive N-N bond in the resulting product.

Cyclopropanes are commonly used as valuable 3-carbon building blocks. Herein, we disclose a different reactivity pattern of furanyl cyclopropanes, which serve as a 4-carbon component in Lewis acid-promoted [4+2] cycloadditions with nitrosoarenes to afford 1,2-oxazine derivatives. Importantly, the regioselectivity of the cycloaddition reaction can be controlled by the appropriate choice of the Lewis acid.

A reaction sequence of visible light-mediated cyclopropanation/acid-promoted ring-opening is described for the formal alkylation of silyl enol ethers with aryldiazoacetates. Under the same conditions, the Danishefsky's diene can react with aryldiazoacetates to afford [4+1]-cycloaddition adducts. Key mechanistic aspects are proposed based on experimental evidence and DFT calculations.
