[3 + 2] A 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of C,N-cyclic azomethine imines with allyl alkyl ketones has been achieved. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions and tolerates a wide range of functional groups. An array of tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives is generally constructed with good diastereoselectivities and enantioselectivities (up to >25:1 dr, >95% ee). Moreover, the absolute configuration of the product was previously determined by using the quantum electronic circular dichroism calculation and ECD spectrum method.

A facile protocol for visible-light-induced decarboxylative radical coupling of NHP esters with 8-aminoquinoline amides is reported, affording a highly efficient approach to synthesize a variety of 2-alkylated or 2,4-dialkylated 8-aminoquinoline derivatives. The reaction proceeds smoothly without adding any ligand, and provides the corresponding products containing a wide range of functional groups in moderate to excellent yields. This reaction uses readily available starting materials, and proceeds under mild conditions and with operational simplicity.

We report an easy and powerful approach to the synthesis of novel chromeno[4,3-d]pyrimidine-5-acetic acids through ANRORC reaction of electron-deficient 3-vinylchromones and 1,3-N,N-binucleophiles. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions (EtOH, rt) and is applicable to a wide range of substrates. The described compounds show fluorescence in the violet-blue range (390–460 nm) with Stokes shift of 40–80 nm and moderate quantum yield (0.15–0.20). As the electron-withdrawing group is conserved in the form of an acetic acid fragment, these compounds may readily be functionalized or conjugated to a required substrate for (bio)analytical purposes.

A concise, atom-economic, and highly regioselective synthetic strategy for the construction of several dinitrogen-fused heterocycles bearing bisphosphonates by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azomethine imines with tetraethyl vinylidene-1,1-bisphosphonate in the presence of CuI in toluene media has been developed. The targeted compounds were obtained in good yields and with excellent regioselectivity. This method for the synthesis of gem-bisphosphonates (BPs) is particularly attractive due to features such as low cost, mild conditions, atom economy, high stereoselectivity, and potential biological activity of the product.

This short review provides an overview of 7-azaindoline auxiliaries in asymmetric catalysis. 7-Azaindoline serves as a useful attachment to carboxylic acids, and the thus-formed 7-azaindoline amides are amenable to atom-economical C–C bond-forming reactions with high stereoselectivity. The attachment is used for the sake of gaining traction in promoting the reaction of interest and can be easily removed after enantioselective reactions. Both nucleophilic and electrophilic catalyses are realized with broad tolerance for functional groups, showcasing the usefulness of 7-azaindoline auxiliaries for practical and streamlined synthesis of a wide range of acyclic chiral building blocks.1 Introduction2 7-Azaindoline as a Key Auxiliary3 7-Azaindoline Amide as a Pronucleophile3.1 α-Carbon-Substituted 7-Azaindoline Amide3.2 α-Nitrogen-Substituted 7-Azaindoline Amide3.3 α-Oxygen-Substituted 7-Azaindoline Amide3.4 α-Fluorocarbon-Substituted 7-Azaindoline Amide3.5 α-Halogen-Substituted 7-Azaindoline Amide3.6 α-Sulfur-Substituted 7-Azaindoline Amide4 7-Azaindoline Amide as an Electrophile4.1 Conjugate Addition of Butenolides4.2 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition of Nitrones5 Transformation of 7-Azaindoline Amide6 Conclusion

An efficient glycosylation method to synthesize 2-deoxy-O-galactosides based on a Cu(II)-catalyzed reaction without additional ligand has been developed. The glycosylation was amenable to different protected glycal donors and a wide range of acceptors including alcohols, amino acids, sugars, and phenol, and proceeds with excellent yield and high α-selectivity under mild conditions. The reaction proceeds readily on a gram scale, and its versatility is exemplified in the synthesis of oligosaccharides.

Despite many published syntheses of chromones, none has been reported to be both selective for chromones and tolerant of ring substitution. The addition of substituted phenols to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate is now reported as a versatile high yield initial step in a simple three-step synthesis of chromone 2-carboxylic acids. Triethylamine being used to deprotonate the substituted phenol, the addition to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate proceeds under mild conditions and tolerates a wide range of functional groups on the phenol. Although not stereoselective, both fumarate and maleate aryloxy products of this addition can then be cyclized, according to a known method, to chromones without contamination by isomeric coumarins. Thus the addition reaction is a valuable component of a versatile and selective synthesis of substituted chromones.

An efficient base-promoted tandem cyclization for the synthesis of polyfunctional 2-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrofurans from arylglyoxal monohydrates and 3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile has been established. The investigation of the mechanism suggested that this reaction proceeds through a Knoevenagel condensation–Michael addition–oxidation–cyclization sequence. This method demonstrates the compatibility with a wide range of functional groups to produce the 2-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrofuran scaffolds in good to excellent yields in one pot.

We describe herein a three-step synthesis of aliphatic sulfinates. This cost-effective method involves the use of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole under mild conditions and exhibits good yields (up to 78% over three steps). This approach provides an access to a wide range of functionalized sulfinates. A good tolerance with respect to diverse functional groups (alkene, alkyne, ether, acetal) was also noted.

The amide moiety of peptides can be replaced for example by a triazole moiety, which is considered to be bioisosteric. Therefore, the carbonyl moiety of an amino acid has to be replaced by an alkyne in order to provide a precursor of such peptidomimetics. As most amino acids have a chiral center at Cα, such amide bond surrogates need a chiral moiety. Here the asymmetric synthesis of a set of 24N-sulfinyl propargylamines is presented. The condensation of various aldehydes with Ellman’s chiral sulfinamide provides chiralN-sulfinylimines, which were reacted with (trimethylsilyl)ethynyllithium to afford diastereomerically pureN-sulfinyl propargylamines. Diverse functional groups present in the propargylic position resemble the side chain present at the Cαof amino acids. Whereas propargylamines with (cyclo)alkyl substituents can be prepared in a direct manner, residues with polar functional groups require suitable protective groups. The presence of particular functional groups in the side chain in some cases leads to remarkable side reactions of the alkyne moiety. Thus, electron-withdrawing substituents in the Cα-position facilitate a base induced rearrangement to α,β-unsaturated imines, while azide-substituted propargylamines form triazoles under surprisingly mild conditions. A panel of propargylamines bearing fluoro or chloro substituents, polar functional groups, or basic and acidic functional groups is accessible for the use as precursors of peptidomimetics.
