Herein, we report the first example that P(O)-H species including -phosphonates and -phosphine oxides could participate in a highly regioselective 1,4-addition to in situ generated 1-benzopyrylium ion from C3-substituted 2-chromene hemiketals, which provides a brand-new and effective approach for the synthesis of C4-phosphorylated 4-chromenes with diverse C3-functionality (ketone, ester, sulfonyl, aryl, and alkyl groups). In total, the reaction features the use of inexpensive Zn(ClO)·6HO as a catalyst, low catalyst loading (only 5 mol %), mild reaction conditions (60 °C, 10 min to 24 h), and broad substrate scope (46 examples) as well as good to high yields (>90% yield on average). More importantly, mechanistic experiments demonstrated the essential role of the C3-substituent on 2-chromene hemiketals in stabilizing the in situ generated 1-benzopyrylium ion and the regioselective 1,4-addition control.

Herein a novel and robust methodology to spiroimidazolidinones has been developed under a mild reaction. The reaction of (Z)-2-azido-3-phenylacrylic acids , aldehydes , amines , isocyanides , and isocyanides produced regioselectively spiroimidazolidinones in 71-88% yields via a sequential Ugi 4CR/Pd(0) catalyzed azide-isocyanide coupling/cyclization/rearrangement/hydroxylation reaction. Furthermore, the easily accessible starting materials, high bond-forming efficiency, and broad substituent tolerance make this strategy useful in synthetic and medicinal chemistry.

Multipalladium clusters possess peculiar structures and synergistic effects for reactivity and selectivity. Herein, -symmetric tripalladium clusters (, 0.5 mol %) afford C-regioselective SMCC of 2,4-dibromopyridine with phenylboronic acids or pinacol esters (C:C up to 98:1), in contrast to Pd(OAc) in ligand-free conditions.

An -heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed atroposelective [3 + 3] annulation of alkynyl acylazoliums with benzothiazole derivatives has been developed for the divergent synthesis of axially chiral triaryl 2-pyranones and fused 2-pyridones. The regioselectivity of this protocol depends on the structure of benzothiazoles with three different nucleophilic centers. The obtained axially chiral frameworks represent a new class of arylheterocycle atropisomers, which may be potentially useful in medicinal chemistry.

Benzothiazole and benzoxazole heterocyclic ring-containing 1,4,5-trisubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles are well known for their wide range of applications in pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry, but their high-yielding metal-free selective synthesis has always remained challenging as no comprehensive simple protocol has been outlined to date. Owing to their structural and medicinal importance, herein, we synthesized various benzothiazole and benzoxazole heterocyclic ring-containing 1,4,5-trisubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles in high to excellent yields with chemo-/regioselectivity from the library of benzothiazole/benzoxazole-ketones and aryl/alkyl-azides through an enolate-mediated organocatalytic azide-ketone [3 + 2]-cycloaddition under ambient conditions in a few hours. The commercial availability or quick synthesis of the starting materials and catalysts, a diverse substrate scope, chemo-/regioselectivity, quick synthesis of pharmaceutically active known compounds and their analogues, and numerous medicinal applications of functionalized benzothiazole/benzoxazole-triazoles are the key attractions of this metal-free organo-click reaction.
