Iron-catalyzed synthesis of polycyclic-fused azo[l,2-a]indolones via an SNAr/acylation cascade reactions

A novel spiro-annulated benzimidazole host for highly efficient blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices

A novel host featuring a spiro-annulated benzimidazole configuration is exploited for blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices (PhOLEDs).

A concise synthesis of indene-based polycyclic compounds via FeCl3-catalyzed cascade cyclization

An efficient and straightforward protocol to complex indene-based polycyclic compounds via the cascade cyclization of propargylic alcohols and alkenes was developed. The catalyst FeCl₃, as an Earth-abundant and environment friendly transition metal salt, is attractive. This reaction proceeded through unusual C–C bond cleavage.
