Abstract
We have developed a copper-catalyzed synthesis of pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines with terminal alkynes, aldehydes, and tetrahydroisoquinolines. A variety of pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines have been prepared in 17-69% yield via a condensation/Mannich-type addition/oxidation/cyclization cascade sequence. Modifications through simple chemical transformations provided highly functionalized molecules containing a privileged framework.

Abstract
AbstractActivated acetylenic substrates such as acetylenic esters and alkyl propiolates are very important in organic synthesis. Due to their electron deficiency, these compounds are widely used in combinatorial and multicomponent reactions, enabling the synthesis of a large variety of novel compounds. In addition, these substrates are powerful Michael acceptors and convenient dienophiles and dipolarophiles in Diels–Alder and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. The addition of different nucleophiles, primarily phosphorus, nitrogen or sulfur, to the triple bonds of these substrates produces key intermediates, such as Tebby and Huisgen zwitterions, which can lead to designing pathways toward the generation of spirocyclic and polycyclic compounds. This account highlights recent studies on the chemistry of acetylenic esters and their applications in organic synthesis.1 Introduction2 Synthesis of Acyclic and Monocyclic Compounds3 Synthesis of Spirocyclic Compounds4 Synthesis of Polycyclic Compounds5 Conclusion

Abstract
Pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines occur frequently in a large number of bioactive natural products and pharmaceutically important molecules. The synthesis of pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives is an easy and useful way to produce artificial molecules with potential applications. A huge number of excellent methodologies for constructing pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines have been reported in the last decade. This review summarizes the recent advances in this research field covering from 2011 to 2021.

Abstract
Synthesis of novel C3-substituted 5,6-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines via a three-component domino reaction of 1-aroyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines, terminal alkynes and CH-acids under microwave irradiation in dry acetonitrile is described. The method developed enables the obtainment of highly functionalized compounds with pharmacophore groups, which are potentially biologically active.

Abstract
An efficient and enviromentally friendly CuBr/NHPI co-catalyzed aerobic oxidative [3 + 2] cycloaddition-aromatization cascade was realized with N-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines and electron-deficient olefins. Under the mild conditions, the reaction proceeded smoothly and displayed excellent functional group tolerance, affording 5,6-dihydro-pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines in good to high yields. This protocol exhibits a broad substrate scope to both N-alkyl tetrahydroisoquinolines and dipolarophile substrates.
