We present a new [3+2] cycloaddition reaction between alkyl-acceptor diazoalkanes under visible light irradiation. By employing easily accessible alkyl-acceptor-type diazoalkanes or their precursor hydrazones as both 1,3-dipoles and dipolarophiles, a diverse range of pyrazoline derivatives featuring a quaternary center have been efficiently synthesized in a predictable manner, with excellent functional group tolerance and good yields. Furthermore, scale-up experiments and downstream transformations of the product were also detailed.

A facile two-step enantiospecific synthesis of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroindolizine scaffolds has been developed via TMSOTf-promoted [3 + 2] cycloaddition between carbohydrate-derived spirocyclic donor-acceptor cyclopropanecarboxlates and alkyl/aryl nitriles followed by an intramolecular Mitsunobu reaction of the resulting chiral 2/5-(4-hydroxybutyl)pyrrole derivatives.

The antiausterity strategy in anticancer drug discovery has attracted much attention as a way to exterminate cancer cells under nutrient deprived conditions which are commonly found in solid tumors. These tumors under low nutrient stress are known to be malignant and often resist conventional drug therapy. As a potential drug candidate, we focused on the meroterpenoid natural product callistrilone O which has demonstrated extremely potent antiausterity properties toward PANC-1 pancreatic carcinoma in vitro.

A novel metal- and azide-free methodology for the synthesis of trifluoromethylated 1,2,3-triazoles from arylamines with a new 3-bromo-1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-one derived tosylhydrazone has been developed under mild reaction conditions. The new α-bromo-trifluoromethylated tosylhydrazone reagent was operationally safe and bench-stable from low-cost and readily commercially available starting materials in the iodine-promoted aerobic oxidative cycloaddition reaction with arylamines, affording a variety of trifluoromethylated 1,2,3-triazoles in good to excellent yields.

The relative reactivity and cis/trans selectivity of the intramolecular [3+2] cycloaddition (IM32CA) reactions of nitrile oxide (NO), azide (AZ), nitrile sulfide (NS) and nitrile ylide (NY), leading to functionalized heterocycles are studied within the Molecular Electron Density Theory. The kinetically controlled IM32CA reactions are predicted to be cis stereospecific, while the reaction feasibility follows the order NY > NS > NO > AZ with the respective activation Gibbs free energies of 13.7, 17.

Reliable methods for rapidly constructing C(sp3)-rich three-dimensional polycycles are in high demand for organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. Although there are various mature systems for synthesizing five- or six-membered polycycles, a catalytic platform for accessing diverse cycloheptanoid-containing polycyclic scaffolds is lacking. Herein, we describe a method for copper-catalyzed intramolecular 2-aminoallyl cation-diene (4 + 3) cycloaddition reactions.
