A metal-free intramolecular cyclization of N-acyl amides for the synthesis of 3-nitro-2-(per)fluoroalkyl indoles is reported. Good functional group tolerance and a broad range of substrates are the features of this approach. The developed method is easy to operate and is suitable for the preparation of 2-difluoromethyl/trifluoromethyl/perfluoroethyl/perfluoropropyl indoles in yields of 84 to 99%. Also, the application of this protocol in the gram scale is shown.

Herein, we developed a silane-promoted cycloaddition of thiobenzhydrazides with carbon dioxide leading to 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3)-ones. This procedure involves sequential -silylation and fixation of carbon dioxide toward a hydrazine formyl intermediate, followed by intramolecular nucleophilic cyclization and aromatization. A series of functional groups are well-tolerated under this procedure.

The successful implementation of a cascade reaction involving a cyclobutyl unit has posed a significant challenge in achieving ring-retentive functionalization because of the ring's sacrificial tendency. Herein, we have accomplished a cinchona-derived squaramide-catalyzed cascade reaction sequence, encompassing the desymmetrization of cyclobutanone, followed by an aldol reaction and, subsequently, a 1,4-addition step. This overall process offers a viable strategy to access architecturally fascinating oxa-spirocycles fused with cyclobutanone motifs in good yields with high optical purity.

Background: Recently, pyrido[2,3-] pyrimidine, triazolopyrimidine, thiazolopyrimidine, quinoline, and pyrazole derivatives have gained attention due to their diverse biological activities, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, antitubercular, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral effects.
Objective: The synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds including 5-quinoline-pyrido[2,3-] pyrimidinone (-, , -), 6-quinoline-pyrido[2,3-]thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidinone (, , -), 1,2,4-triazole-6-quinoline-pyrido[2,3-]thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidinone (-), and pyrido[2,3-]thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidine-ethyl-(pyridine)-9-thiaazabenzo[]azulenone () derivatives was performed with high yields while evaluating antimicrobial activities.
Methods: A new series of quinoline-pyrido[2,3-]thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidine derivatives were prepared using a modern style and advanced technology, resulting in high yields of these new compounds.

A facile copper-catalyzed, base-controlled cyclization reaction has been developed for the synthesis of 9-membered cycloalkyne and 6-membered heterocycle sultams under mild conditions. This protocol utilizes a copper-catalyzed intramolecular A (alkyne-aldehyde-amine) coupling reaction to efficiently synthesize 9-membered cycloalkyne sultams in yields up to 90%. Alternatively, by substituting NaHCO with DBU, the protocol achieves selective deprotection of the -propargyl group, thereby facilitating the formation of 6-membered heterocyclic sultams, also in high yields.
