We report an efficient method for the direct β-acylation of 2-ylideneoxindoles with acyl chlorides in the presence of base-catalyzed by organophosphanes. A variety of functionalized 2-ylideneoxindoles were prepared in moderate to good yields under metal-free and mild conditions via a tandem phospha-Michael/O-acylation/intramolecular cyclization/ rearrangement sequence. The mechanistic investigations revealed that the C-O bond cleavage on possible betaine intermediate is the key step for the installation of keto-functionality at β-position of 2-ylideneoxindoles in a highly stereospecific manner. The synthetic utility of this protocol could also be proven by scale-up reactions and synthetic transformations of the products.

The regioselective synthesis of benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole derivatives via amination (C–N) and intramolecular cyclization (C–S) reactions in the presence of molecular iodine has been reported. This method is base and metal free and features inexpensive catalysts, with a simple procedure and a short reaction time.

A metal-free procedure for the cyclization of (E)-1,4-di­arylenynes is described. The reaction is promoted by a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid and takes place in ethanol at 160 °C under microwave irradiation to afford stereoselectively (E)-3-styrylisocoumarins in good to excellent yields.

Two metal-free syntheses of 2,4,6-trisubstituted pyridines 10a–m and 16a–j are described. N,N,6-Trimethyl-4-(substituted)pyridin-2-amines 10 were prepared from aryl or heteroaryl methyl ketones which were transformed with N,N-dimethylacetamide dimethyl acetal (DMADMA) into enaminones 4a–m, followed by treatment with ammonium acetate to give (Z)-3-amino-1-(substituted)but-2-en-1-ones 5a–m. These were treated with DMADMA under microwave irradiation in a closed vessel at 130°C, to give via intermediates 7–9 the final products 10a–m. N2,N2,N4,N4-Tetramethyl-6-(substituted) pyridine-2,4-diamines 16a–j were prepared in a one-pot synthesis from the corresponding carboxamides 11a–j by treatment with an excess of DMADMA in a closed vessel under microwave irradiation to give via intermediates 12a–j to 15a–j the final products 16a–j. X-Ray single crystal diffractometry studies of the enaminones 5c, 5g, 5i, 5j, and 5m and 2,4,6-trisubstituted pyridines 16a, 16b, 16g, 16i, and 16j were consistent with the expected structures.

A novel oxidative amination of sp3 C–H bonds was developed for the efficient synthesis of imidazo[1,5-a]quinolines from readily available α-amino acids and (2-azaaryl)methanes. This domino protocol, which was established in a TBAI-TBHP oxidation system, includes transition-metal-free decarboxylation and intramolecular cyclization. This method represented a new avenue for the synthesis of N-heterocycles using 2-methylquinolines as the synthon of quinoline-2-carbaldehydes.
