The Cope rearrangement of 2,3-divinyloxiranes, a rare example of epoxide C-C bond cleavage, results in 4,5-dihydrooxepines which are amenable to hydrolysis, furnishing 1,6-dicarbonyl compounds containing two contiguous stereocenters at the 3- and 4- positions. We employ...

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.

An efficient and general protocol has been developed for preparing imidazo[1,5-a]pyridines in moderate to excellent yields by an I2-mediated sequential dual oxidative C(sp3)–H amination of ethyl pyridin-2-ylacetates with benzylamines. The metal- and peroxide-free reaction involves oxidative dehydrogenation and two C–N couplings.

A metal-free oxidative coupling reaction of trifluoromethyl β-diketones with alcohols for the synthesis of α-keto esters in good to excellent yields has been developed. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that an I2/TBHP promoted sequential iodination, C–C bond cleavage, C–O bond formation and oxidation pathway is involved in this reaction.

Functionalization of amide bond via the cleavage of a non-carbonyl, C-N σ bond remains under-investigated. In this work, a transition-metal-free single-electron transfer reaction has been developed for the C-N σ bond cleavage of N-acylazetidines using the electride derived from sodium dispersions and 15-crown-5. Of note, less strained cyclic amides and acyclic amides are stable under the reaction conditions, which features the excellent chemoselectivity of the reaction. This method is amenable to a range of unhindered and sterically encumbered azetidinyl amides.
