A novel Friedel–Crafts reaction of indoles with vicinal tricarbonyl compounds generated in situ has been developed, forming indolyl tertiary alcohols. The process involves disproportionation of TEMPO, α-oxyamination, N–O bond cleavage and, finally, addition of the indole.

The development of an efficient and mild synthetic methodology for the construction of bioactive fluorine-containing molecules represents one of the hot research topics in general synthetic organic chemistry. In this review, some recent progresses achieved in the development of detrifluoroacetylatively generated mono-fluorinated enolates via CC bond cleavage and their asymmetric nucleophilic reactions for assembly of chiral quaternary C-F center containing compounds.

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...

A one-pot approach for the direct synthesis of substituted pyrazoles from isoxazoles is reported. The process involves isoxazole N–O bond cleavage mediated by a molybdenum complex, in situ hydrolysis of the resulting β-amino enone to the corresponding 1,3-diketone, followed by pyrazole formation in the presence of hydrazine or substituted hydrazine. Good to excellent yields and regioselectivities are obtained with nonsymmetric isoxazoles. By using readily available starting materials, a wide range of substituted pyrazoles may be synthesized by this method.

Conformationally restrained exo-isomers of N-Boc-protected spiro[2′,2′-difluorocyclopropane-3′,2′-tropanes] were synthesized in 62–83% yield via absolutely diastereoselective cycloaddition of CF2, generated in situ from Me3SiCF3/NaI in refluxing THF, to double bonds of 3-alkylidenetropanes. Standard removal of Boc protecting groups afforded corresponding exo-spiro[2′,2′-difluorocyclopropane-3′,2′-tropane] hydrochlorides in 82–94% yields. DFT and CCSD(T) calculations revealed that the observed exo-selectivity of difluorocarbene addition is likely to be caused by a lower activation barrier of the exo-difluorocyclopropanation compared to the endo-reaction.
