A simple method for constructing unsymmetrical 2-nitrobiaryls has been developed between substituted 1,4-dithiine-2-carbaldehyde and nitroolefins under metal-free conditions. To gain the advantage of the HOMO-raising effect of temporary substitutions on in situ generated dienamine intermediate, the present protocol established [4+2] benzannulation of 1,4-dithiane-tethered enals with nitroolefin. Further, easy unmasking of 1,4-dithiine units results in a benzannulation product like that of unsubstituted enals, which are difficult to access. Several 2-nitrobiaryls have been accessed with moderate to good yields and with promising synthetic applications.

Drastic changes to the character of the acidic catalyst enable the reversal of the double alkyne benzannulation reaction output. In the presence of a strong Brønsted acid, 1,4-dihydropyrrolopyrroles undergo transformation which results in the formation of two 7-membered rings. Computational studies imply that the thermodynamically unfavored 7-membered ring is forged via the kinetically favored attack of a protonated alkyne at the position 3a of pyrrolopyrrole followed by a 1,2-vinyl shift.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers have developed a quick and efficient method to create CF-phenanthridones using 4-methyl-3-trifluoroacetylquinolones and nitro-olefins through a special chemical reaction called benzannulation.
- This new method is better than previous ones because it only requires a basic substance and doesn't depend on complicated metal catalysts or oxidants.
- The presence of the strong electron-withdrawing CF group in the quinolone helps to form a reactive intermediate that drives the reaction forward.

An unprecedented five-component [2 + 2 + 1 + 1] benzannulation strategy for regioselective assembly of densely functionalized aromatic amines from two ynals, two malononitriles, and sodium sulfinates is established. The benzannulation protocol enables the efficient installation of five substituents on a benzene ring via the formation of multiple chemical bonds in a single operation, providing various multifunctionalized aromatic primary amines in moderate to good yields. Additionally, three-component [3 + 2 + 1] cycloaddition of malononitriles, ynals, and NHSCN was also achieved to produce 2-amnopyridine derivatives with NHSCN serving as an ammonia surrogate.

Organo(chloro)silanes are essential chemicals, but the synthesis of compounds of the formula RSiCl with defined values of n is usually laborious. Herein, we first disclose that a [4+2]-cycloaddition between readily available ClSiC≡CSiCl and selected dienes provides facile access to vicinal bis(trichlorosilylated) benzenes and bicyclo[2.2.
