Selectivity Controlled Hydroamination of Alkynes to SulfonylFluoride Hubs: Development and Application

Xueying Bai et al.

Summary: This paper describes a hydroamination reaction of unactivated alkynes and lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide under mild conditions, resulting in a single regioisomer of sulfonylfluorides. The method shows broad functional group compatibility and high yields of the target vinylfluorosulfonimides. Additionally, gram-scale hydroamination of both terminal and internal alkynes has been achieved, and further transformations of the vinylfluorosulfonimide have been developed for the synthesis of fluorosulfates and diphenyl sulfate.

Direct Access to 4-Substituted Isoquinolones via a Sequential Pd-Catalyzed Cyclization/Base-Promoted Aromatization/Ring-Opening of N-Propargyl-1,3-oxazolidines

Xianjun Xu et al.

Summary: The development of economically feasible strategies for constructing structurally diverse isoquinolones is still challenging. In this study, a practical Pd-catalyzed cyclization/base-promoted ammatization/ring-opening protocol for N-propargyl-1,3-oxazolidines with carboxylic acids was disclosed. The domino reaction resulted in a series of ester-functionalized isoquinolones in moderate to good yields through C-O bond cleavage, demonstrating a broad functional group tolerance.

5-Aryloxazolidines as Reagents for Double Alkylation of Arenes: A Novel Synthesis of 4-Aryltetrahydroisoquinolines

Evgeny M. Buev et al.

Summary: In this study, 5-aryloxazolidines were reacted with arenes under specific conditions to give alkaloid-like 4-aryltetrahydroisoquinolines via the Friedel-Crafts/Pictet-Spengler double alkylation sequence. Three approaches for controlled insertion of substituents into the target molecules were discussed, along with the application of oxazolidine derivatives in the alkylation of arenes. An innovative two-step easily scalable synthesis of the 4-aryltetrahydroisoquinoline core from aromatic aldehyde was achieved using oxazolidine methodology.

β-Functionalization of Saturated Aza-Heterocycles Enabled by Organic Photoredox Catalysis

Natalie Holmberg-Douglas et al.

Summary: The direct beta-functionalization of saturated aza-heterocycles has been a challenge due to the nature of beta-C-H bonds. The study demonstrates a successful beta-functionalization approach enabled by a two-step organic photoredox catalysis method, involving copper-mediated dehydrogenation followed by hydrofunctionalization of ene-carbamates. The reaction provides a range of C-C, C-O, and C-N aza-heterocycles at the beta-position.

Microwave-Assisted Palladium-Catalyzed Reductive Cyclization/Ring-Opening/Aromatization Cascade of Oxazolidines to Isoquinolines

Xianjun Xu et al.

Summary: An efficient palladium-catalyzed reaction under microwave irradiation has been developed for the construction of 4-substituted isoquinolines through a sequential palladium-catalyzed reductive cyclization/ring-opening/aromatization cascade. The practical value of this method was demonstrated by conducting millimole-scale reactions and transforming the isoquinoline into a key intermediate for the synthesis of a lamellarin analogue.

CF3SO3H-enabled cascade ring-opening/dearomatization of indole derivatives to polycyclic heterocycles

Zhengdong Yao et al.

Summary: A novel dearomatization process was demonstrated for the production of fused polycyclic indolines via a CF3SO3H-mediated cascade ring-opening of a beta-lactam and hydroaminative cyclization. This method provides a new strategy for synthesizing important polycyclic indoline-2-amine derivatives with moderate to excellent yields and good functional group tolerance. Furthermore, transformation of the product can smoothly deliver the corresponding acid, alcohol, and amide.
