Summary: An iodine-catalyzed double [4+2] oxidative annulation of ketones and diamines is reported, leading to the synthesis of substituted dimeric pyrazines under metal-free conditions through a multi-pathway coupled domino strategy. During this process, one C-C and four C-N bonds are formed from two ketones and two diamines.

Summary: In this study, a one-pot construction method for diversified sulfonyl flavones was developed. The alpha-sulfonyl o-hydroxyacetophenones were reacted with substituted nitriles through a K2CO3-mediated (5+1) stepwise annulation under open-flask atmosphere conditions. This method offers intermolecular and intramolecular ring-closure pathways by forming a carbon-oxygen single bond, a carbon-carbon double bond, and cleaving a carbon-nitrile triple bond.

Summary: In this study, a modular approach was used to synthesize a wide range of 1-cyano-3-(hetero)arylindolizines through aldol-cyclopropanation-oxidative cycloisomerization. DDQ was utilized for the first time to selectively synthesize the pyrrole units from cyclopropyl pyridines. The regioselective oxidation of the benzylic position by DDQ enabled the access to one regioisomer out of two possible ones. Additionally, homo-dimerization at the C2, C5, or C7 sites of indolizines in the presence of DDQ was discovered for the first time.

Summary: The synthesis of N-substituted indolo[2,3-b]-quinoxalines was achieved through Ru(II)-catalyzed ortho C-H functionalization of 2-arylquinoxalines with sulfonyl azides followed by further oxidation with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone. This strategy provided a new efficient route for the preparation of biologically relevant compounds with a broad substrate scope. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that the C-N bond formations proceed through a five-membered ruthenacyclic intermediate in the first step and a radical mechanism in the second step.

Summary: An I-2-DMSO mediated one-pot approach for synthesizing imidazo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives from readily available aryl methyl ketones and isoquinolin-1-amine has been demonstrated. This method achieves the convergent integration of one self-sorting domino sequence with two linear domino sequences through a triple in situ cross-trapping strategy, efficiently generating multiple C-C/C-N/C-S/C-I bonds, a new imidazole ring, and a quaternary carbon center. Moreover, the iodo group and methylthio group of the product can undergo further transformations, showing the utility of this method in synthetic chemistry.

Summary: A palladium-catalyzed one-pot, two-step sequential reaction of 2-alkynylarylaldehydes and ketones was developed to access isoquinolines under mild conditions. The reaction proceeds through a 6-endo-dig cyclization-hydration-ring opening sequence followed by annulation with ammonium acetate to deliver the isoquinoline derivatives in good to excellent yields. The domino sequence showed high regioselectivity and avoided the competitive 5-exo-dig cyclization observed in a gold-catalyzed reaction.

Summary: In this study, the PIDA mediated oxidative acyloxylation/azirination and sulfonyloxylation/azirination of beta-enamino esters were investigated. A series of functionalized acyloxy-2H-azirine and sulfonyloxy-2H-azirine derivatives were successfully synthesized in moderate to good yields. This is the first reported oxidative sulfonyloxylation/azirination of beta-enamino esters using PIDA and sulfonic acid, providing a pathway to access sulfonyloxy-2H-azirine. Hypervalent iodine reagents enable cascade C-O/C-N bond formation, and a possible reaction pathway was proposed based on experimental results.

Summary: In this study, the sulfur and nitrogen moieties of methylphenyl sulfoximine (MPS)-enabled aryl thioamides were independently involved in annulation with unactivated alkynes to construct unusual 6,6-fused thiopyranoisoquinoline skeletons. The innovative Ru-catalyzed one-pot double annulation of aryl thioamides with alkynes was achieved through overcoming challenges such as the S poisoning effect and susceptibility of S to oxidation. The novel isothiochromene-1-one skeletons were successfully constructed, initiating the annulation with S preference over the N motif of thioamides with alkynes.

Summary: This study presents the design and synthesis of sulfated disaccharide inhibitors based on IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S), which showed potent inhibition of Sulf-2. The results suggest that IdoA(2S)-GlcNS(6S) is the shortest fragment size required for effective inhibition of Sulfs, and a trisulfated disaccharide is identified as the minimal fragment size of heparan sulfate for effective endosulfatase inhibition.

Summary: The self-adaptability of galvanostatic electrolysis was found to be helpful in a multistage chemo- and diastereoselective electrochemically promoted cyclodimerization of chalcones. Through a series of reductive events, densely functionalized cyclopentanes with five contiguous stereocenters were obtained (25 examples, yields up to 95%, dr values up to >20:1). Further experimental and electrochemical investigations indicated the crucial role of dynamic kinetic resolution of the aldol intermediate in the reaction mechanism.

Summary: In this study, the synthesis of functionalized benzo[a]phenazines and indazolo[2,3-a]quinolines was achieved through Rh(III)-catalyzed oxidative annulation of 2-arylquinoxalines and 2-aryl-2H-indazoles with allyl alcohols. The method showed a wide substrate scope, excellent functional group tolerance, good to high yields of annulated products, and the capability for scaled-up synthesis. A tentative mechanism of the annulation reaction was proposed based on a preliminary mechanistic investigation.
