A reagent-controlled divergent reaction of vinyl sulfoxonium ylides with arylideneindane-1,3-diones has been developed. The transformation proceeds through in situ formation and selective cleavage of donor-acceptor cyclopropane intermediates, providing dihydropyranone and indenopyranone scaffolds with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity. B(C6F5)3 affords dihydropyranones, whereas ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) furnishes indenopyranones. Mechanistic studies identify a common vinyl cyclopropane intermediate and support distinct ionic and radical pathways.
We report a sequential one-pot gold-catalyzed cyclization/aryne cycloaddition strategy that affords structurally diverse 5-arylmethyl oxazoles and substituted polyacenes from simple propargylic amides. Arynes are shown to engage the oxazoline products from gold catalysis via an ene reaction, with the resulting oxazoles...

We report a phosphine-catalyzed [3 + 2] annulation of indole N-alkynamides with ynones, providing efficient access to arylidene spiro-cyclopentanone pyrroloquinolinediones. The reaction proceeds through the in situ generation of a reactive enedione intermediate and exhibits broad substrate scope, high regioselectivity,...

Herein, we report a one-step Pd(II)-catalyzed strategy for the synthesis of synthetically challenging and medicinally important functionalized dibenzotropone scaffolds from readily accessible o-alkynylaryl nitriles and electron-rich aryl boronic acids. The cascade process involves regioselective 1,2-syn-carbopalladatio...

A concise and efficient domino strategy for the synthesis of symmetrically 2,3-disubstituted indenols has been developed via palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling of readily accessible 1,2-diborylalkenes with substituted 2-bromoaryl carbonyl compounds. The reaction proceeds efficiently, with palladium playing a dual role...

An efficient Pd-catalyzed tandem dearomative Heck reaction of N-propiolylindoles or pyrroles with aryl bromides has been developed. The protocol provides access to a series of benzopyrrolizinone and pyrrolizinone derivatives bearing a quaternary stereocenter and a tetrasubstituted olefin moiety in moderate to high yiel...

A practical and efficient protocol for the enantioselective synthesis of seven-membered fused chromanone derivatives has been developed under mild conditions. This approach proceeds via a stepwise sequence involving a palladium-catalyzed O-allylic reaction of 3-hydroxy chromones with vinyl ethylene carbonates, followed...
