Pudovik addition/[1,2]-phospha-Brook rearrangement as an efficient tool for generation of anionic nucleophiles is an attractive strategy for the construction of C-C bonds in organic synthesis. Herein, we report organocatalytic 1,6-conjugate addition of -quinone methides utilizing Pudovik addition/[1,2]-phospha-Brook rearrangement. Chiral guanidine-sulfonamide catalyzed the three-component reaction efficiently, providing biologically active oxindole/biaryl/phosphorus-based structures in high yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities. A possible bifunctional catalytic mode was proposed to elucidate the chiral control of this process.

The utilization of the homogeneous ()-2-pyrrolidine-tetrazole organocatalyst (Ley catalyst) in the self-condensation of ethyl pyruvate and cross-aldol reactions of ethyl pyruvate donor with non-enolizable pyruvate acceptors, namely the sterically hindered ethyl 3-methyl-2-oxobutyrate or the highly electrophilic methyl 3,3,3-trifluoropyruvate, is described as the key enantioselective step toward the synthesis of the corresponding biologically relevant isotetronic acids featuring a quaternary carbon functionalized with ester and alkyl groups. The transition from homogeneous to heterogeneous flow conditions is also investigated, detailing the fabrication and operation of packed-bed reactors filled with a silica-supported version of the pyrrolidine-tetrazole catalyst (SBA-15 as the matrix).

In organic synthesis, the solvent is the chemical compound that represents the largest proportion of the process. However, conventional solvents are often toxic and dangerous for the environment, and an interesting alternative is to replace them by water. In this context, catalyst surfactants allow both organic reagents in water to be solubilized and organic reactions to be catalyzed.

Organocatalytic, enantioselective decarboxylative Mannich reactions of α,β-unsaturated β'-ketoacids and isatin -Boc imines, to give the corresponding 3-carbamoyl-2-oxindole derivatives, were developed. Subsequent N-deprotection and diastereoselective, intramolecular, aza-Michael reaction of the free amine provides previously unreported spiro[indoline-3,2'-piperidine]-2,4'-diones.

A metal-free dual photo- and organocatalytic decarbonylation of aliphatic aldehydes is described for the first time. On the one hand, a wide range of tertiary aldehydes are smoothly decarbonylated thanks to the combination of thioxanthone as photocatalyst and diphenyl disulfide as organocatalyst. On the other hand, by simply using 4-CzIPN as photocatalyst instead of thioxanthone, various secondary aldehydes readily undergo decarbonylation in an orthogonal manner, via the in situ formation of 1,4-dihydropyridines.

Benzothiazole and benzoxazole heterocyclic ring-containing 1,4,5-trisubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles are well known for their wide range of applications in pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry, but their high-yielding metal-free selective synthesis has always remained challenging as no comprehensive simple protocol has been outlined to date. Owing to their structural and medicinal importance, herein, we synthesized various benzothiazole and benzoxazole heterocyclic ring-containing 1,4,5-trisubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles in high to excellent yields with chemo-/regioselectivity from the library of benzothiazole/benzoxazole-ketones and aryl/alkyl-azides through an enolate-mediated organocatalytic azide-ketone [3 + 2]-cycloaddition under ambient conditions in a few hours. The commercial availability or quick synthesis of the starting materials and catalysts, a diverse substrate scope, chemo-/regioselectivity, quick synthesis of pharmaceutically active known compounds and their analogues, and numerous medicinal applications of functionalized benzothiazole/benzoxazole-triazoles are the key attractions of this metal-free organo-click reaction.
