Summary: Additional resonance-line shifts dependent on the spinning frequencies were discovered in solid-state MAS NMR spectra of adamantane, which were not influenced by the decoupling-field strengths for H-1 or the distinction between CH and CH2 groups. These shifts were found to be caused by interference between intermolecular C-13-H-1 and H-1-H-1 dipolar couplings of adamantane.

Summary: Isobenzopyrylium ions are unexplored in asymmetric catalysis. A new organocatalytic method was developed to synthesize chiral tetrahydronaphthols with high yield, diastereoselectivity, and enantioselectivity. The bioactivity of these compounds was evaluated in cancer cells, showing unique profiles and morphological changes in some cases.

Summary: An unconventional cascade annulation of arynes with N-alkyl-N-nitrosamides has been developed, providing functionalized indazoles in high yields and regioselectivity under transition-metal-free conditions at ambient temperature. The protocol is scalable and exhibits a broad substrate scope, and the reaction mechanism has been studied with DFT calculations.

Summary: An organocatalytic approach using VQM intermediates was employed to introduce various alcohols into the carbonyl of alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones, followed by dearomatization to yield stereo-defined cyclic ethers via a cascade process. This strategy provides efficient access to the unexplored chiral cyclic ether chemospace.

Summary: A highly efficient and catalyst-free method has been developed for the dearomatization of 3-(2-isocyanoethyl)indoles using in situ generated nitrile imines. This method involves a nucleophilic/Friedel-Crafts/aza-Mannich type cascade and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction, and allows for the rapid assembly of a wide range of polycyclic indoline scaffolds with moderate to excellent yields and diastereoselectivities.

Summary: An efficient stereoselective cobalt-catalyzed hydrovinylative cyclization of 1,6-enynes with chalcones to obtain functionalized pyrrolidines has been developed. The products were furnished in good yields with up to 93% ee. A plausible mechanism through which the transformation was initiated by cyclization of 1,6-enynes is proposed.

Summary: This paper introduces a one-pot two sequential [3 + 2] cycloadditions method for diastereoselective synthesis of spirooxindole pyrrolizidines. The highly condensed ring system with seven stereocenters is generated selectively. This new method is economically efficient, with only two equivalents of water released as a side product.

Summary: Magnesium-(II)-catalyzed cascade reactions of N,N'-cyclic azomethine imines with indolyl-substituted isocyanides were conducted. The method showed high tolerance towards different functional groups and had a wide range of substrates. A series of anti-pentacyclic spiroindolines with N,N'-fused heterocycle skeletons were obtained in good yields (up to 82%) with high selectivity (8.5:1 dr) under mild conditions. Interestingly, a sequential HOAc-mediated protonation led to diastereoenriched epimerization, resulting in the formation of exclusively syn-pentacyclic spiroindolines.

Summary: A new method for the synthesis of 1-pyrrolines with high regio- and diastereoselectivity has been explored using N-alkenylnitrones and alkynes, with mechanistic studies providing insight into the balance of steric and electronic effects that control the product preferences. This cascade reaction demonstrates the divergent synthetic utility of the new method through diastereoselective derivatization of the 1-pyrrolines prepared.

Summary: The three-component cascade reaction established a new series of spiropyrrolizidine derivatives with wide structural complexity and diversity through an unprecedented isomerization, with moderate to excellent yield. The synthesized compounds showed moderate to strong antimicrobial and anticoagulant activities against different species of bacteria and fungi in vitro, and the structure-activity relationship was discussed based on molecular docking analysis.

Summary: In this study, a cascade reaction involving indolecarboxaldehydes and phosphonate-functionalized donor-acceptor cyclopropanes was used to synthesize functionalized dihydrocarbazoles and cyclohepta[cd]indoles in formal (3 + 3) and (4 + 3) cycloadditions. A slight modification to the reaction conditions also enabled access to fully aromatic heterocyclic scaffolds through the thermal loss of an electron-rich aryl moiety.

Summary: The study presents an unprecedented nickel-catalyzed one-pot synthesis of enantioenriched spiroindanones from readily available 1,6-enynes and o-formylarylboronic acids. The reaction proceeds smoothly under redox-neutral conditions, demonstrating excellent regio-, enantio-, and diastereoselectivity with a broad substrate scope.

Summary: An efficient visible-light-assisted, copper-catalyzed tandem radical cyclization of N-propargylindoles with cyclic ethers has been established. A series of 2-oxoalkyl-9H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indol-9-ones with potential biological activities were synthesized in moderate yields using a dual catalytic system with copper acetate as a transition metal catalyst and eosin Y as a visible light catalyst.

Summary: Chiral transition metal complexes with privileged ligands are efficient catalysts for various asymmetric organic transformations. Transition metal complexes of C1-symmetric pyrrolidine-based ligands have been widely used in asymmetric organic reactions. However, a comprehensive review article on the transition metal complexes of chiral C1-symmetric pyrrolidine-based ligands derived from (L)-proline has not been published.
