A mild and efficient [3+2] annulation of phenidones with propiolates has been developed to access -substituted indole alkylamides, enabled by merging electrochemistry with iridium catalysis using an undivided cell at room temperature. The mechanistic studies have confirmed that the electrochemically mediated catalytic cycle of Ir-Ir-Ir exhibits enhanced efficiency, mild reaction conditions, and unconventional selectivity.

A new stereoselective [4+2] annulation method for constructing tetracyclic indolines by reacting indoles with bicyclic N-substituted cyclobutanes has been developed. Using Sc(OTf) as a catalyst, a series of tetracyclic indolines with four continued stereogenic carbon centers have been obtained in ≤86% yields as single diastereomers. This reaction offers an accessible way for the rapid construction of the core structures of biologically active natural products like paucidirinine, deethylibophyllidine, and ibophyllidine.

The first carbocyclic gallylene [(ADC)Ga(GaI)] and bis-gallylene [(ADC)Ga] (ADC = PhC{N(Dipp)C}; Dipp = 2,6-iPrCH) featuring a central CGa ring annulated between two 1,3-imidazole rings are prepared by KC reductions of [(ADC)GaI]. Treatment of [(ADC)Ga] with Fe(CO) affords complex [(ADC)GaFe(CO)] in which each Ga(i) atom serves as a two-electron donor. [(ADC)Ga] activates white phosphorus (P) and the C -F bond of aryl fluorides (ArF) to yield compounds [(ADC)Ga(P)] and -/-[(ADC)GaF(Ar)], respectively.

A condition-controlled Rh(III)-catalyzed selective synthesis of CF-substituted indoles and pyrido[2,1-]isoindoles from 2-arylpyridines and CF-imidoyl sulfoxonium ylides has been developed. The Cp*Rh(MeCN)(SbF)/HFIP system afforded CF-substituted indoles via triple C-H activation, while the [Cp*RhCl]/MeCN condition selectively furnished CF-substituted pyrido[2,1-]isoindoles through C-H [4 + 1] annulation. The notable advantages of this developed method included readily available starting materials, broad substrate scope, and excellent chemoselectivity.

The ever-increasing demand in chemical biology and medicinal research requires the development of new synthetic methods for the rapid construction of libraries of heterocycles from simple raw materials. In this context, the utilization of primary amines or HO as the simple - or -sources in the assembly of a heterocyclic ring skeleton is highly desirable from the viewpoint of atom- and step-economy. Herein, we describe a highly efficient three-component reaction of diazo, allylic diacetates, and commercially available anilines (or HO) to access structurally diverse pyrrolidine and tetrahydrofuran derivatives.
