An organocatalytic approach for the construction of 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran scaffold through a formal [4 + 1] annulation of 2-(2-nitrovinyl)phenols and α-bromoacetophenones in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) has been developed. This protocol could be easily performed in one mmol scale, giving a broad range of 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran derivatives in moderate to excellent yields and remarkable diastereoselectivity (>20 : 1 dr in general) with good functional group tolerance.

Dearomative annulation reaction of acyl-tethered benzothiazole bisnucleophiles with β'-acetoxy allenoates by switching the Lewis base is developed. The DBU-catalyzed reaction gives benzothiazole-fused 1,4-dihydropyridine carboxylates by (3 + 3) annulation chemoselectively. By contrast, the PR-catalyzed reaction gives benzothiazole-fused azepines by (4 + 3) annulation and cyclopentene carboxylates by (4 + 1) annulation; the ratio of the latter two products depends on the solvent.

A copper(II)/DBU relay catalyzed annulation of α-carbonyl-γ-alkynyl sulfoxonium ylides as a new class of sulfoxonium ylide reagents with sulfonyl hydrazides is reported, enabling intramolecular oxygen migration to produce a series of -sulfonamido 2-isoindoles with good yields. The present annulation proceeded readily by combining the Cu(II)-catalyzed 6- oxo-cyclization with the DBU-catalyzed isochromene skeletal rearrangement, resulting in the formation of multiple new chemical bonds.
