Abstract
The development of site-selective functionalization of N-heteroarenes is highly desirable in streamlined synthesis. In this context, direct amination of pyridines stands as an important synthetic methodology, with particular emphasis on accessing 4-aminopyridines, a versatile pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry. Herein, we report a reaction manifold for the C4-selective amination of pyridines by employing nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen (SNH). Through 4-pyridyl pyridinium salt intermediates, 4-aminopyridine products are obtained in reaction with aqueous ammonia without intermediate isolation. The notable regioselectivity was achieved by the electronic tuning of the external pyridine reagents along with the maximization of polarizability in the proton elimination stage. Further mechanistic investigations provided a guiding principle for the selective C-H pyridination of additional N-heteroarenes, presenting a strategic avenue for installation of diverse functional groups.

Abstract
A facile synthesis of biologically important S-aryl dithiocarbamates has been demonstrated by the aryne three-component coupling involving CS2 and aliphatic amines. This transition-metal-free and mild reaction is scalable and operates with good functional group compatibility. Preliminary mechanistic experiments, including density functional theory studies, are also provided. Moreover, with 3-triflyloxybenzynes, a unique four-component coupling incorporating tetrahydrofuran was observed.

Abstract
A transition-metal-free, three-component, and diastereoselective [6 + 3] annulation reaction employing tropone, imino esters, and arynes allowing the synthesis of bridged azabicyclo[4.3.1]decadienes is demonstrated. The key nitrogen ylides for the [6 + 3] annulation were generated by the addition of imino esters to the arynes followed by a proton transfer. The nitrogen ylides undergo a regioselective addition to tropone to furnish the desired products in moderate to good yields with good functional group tolerance under mild conditions.
