Summary: Here, we describe a green and efficient method for the synthesis of pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole derivatives using a three-component strategy in a water-SDS-ionic liquid system. The method offers high yields, eco-friendly conditions, chromatography-free purification, and recyclability of the reaction medium. The selectivity of the process is controlled by the N-substituent present in the pyrazolinone.

Summary: In this study, the green chemistry techniques of PASE and one-pot synthesis were applied to efficiently and quickly synthesize Chromeno[2,3-b]pyridines, substances demanded in medicinal and material chemistry. By extending the PASE approach with 'component economy' and involving the solvent as a reactant, O-substituted 5-alkoxy-5H-chromeno[2,3-b]pyridines were synthesized via a two-step transformation. Mechanistic studies aided in optimizing the reaction conditions for high yields (77-93%).

Summary: Asymmetric rearrangement reactions are highlighted as a perfect tool for constructing new carbon-carbon bonds in an enantioselective manner. The article specifically discusses a new and straightforward procedure for synthesizing alpha-hydroxy ketones with high diastereo- and enantioselectivity through the enantioselective [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement of cinnamyloxycyclohexanone derivatives catalyzed by a commercially available primary amine.

Summary: A one-pot reaction has been developed for the stereodivergent synthesis of diverse 2,3-disubstituted dihydrobenzofurans under mild conditions with high yields and stereoselectivity. By appropriate permutations of two chiral catalysts, a wide range of chiral products can be accessed, demonstrating the ability of two chiral catalysts to independently control two contiguous stereogenic centers.

Summary: The unprecedented organocatalytic cascade aldimine condensation/[1,6]-hydride transfer/Mannich-type cyclization of indole-2-carbaldehydes with o-aminoanilines was successfully developed to assemble polycyclic indole-2,3-fused diazocanes in one step. This novel methodology is highly efficient, metal-free, redox-neutral, and capable of operating at room temperature, providing a new approach for utilizing hydride transfer chemistry in constructing medium-sized ring structures.

Summary: This study presents a synthetically useful approach for the one-pot preparation of 1-aryl-3-trifluoromethylpyrazoles using in situ generated nitrile imines and mercaptoacetaldehyde applied as 1 equiv of acetylene. The protocol involves (3 + 3)-annulation of the mentioned reagents to form 5,6-dihydro-5-hydroxy-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazine, followed by cascade dehydration/ring contraction reactions with p-TsCl. Additionally, the method was used to prepare representative nonfluorinated analogues functionalized with Ph, Ac, and CO2Et groups at the C(3)-position of the pyrazole ring.
