Diastereoselective construction of highly functionalized tetrahydroquinolinoisoxazole scaffolds via intramolecular nitrone cycloaddition

Ruthenium-catalyzed, site-selective C-H activation: access to C5-substituted azaflavanone

A site-selective ruthenium-catalyzed keto group assisted C–H bond activation of 2-aryl tetrahydroquinoline (azaflavanone) derivatives has been achieved with a variety of alkenes for the first time. A wide range of substrates was utilized for the synthesis of a wide variety of alkenylated azaflavanones. This simple and efficient protocol provides the C5-substituted azaflavanone derivatives in high yields with a broad range of functional group tolerance. Further, the C5-alkenylated products were converted into substituted 2-aryl quinoline derivatives in good yields.

Progress in the Chemistry of Tetrahydroquinolines

Tetrahydroquinoline is one of the most important simple nitrogen heterocycles, being widespread in nature and present in a broad variety of pharmacologically active compounds. This Review summarizes the progress achieved in the chemistry of tetrahydroquinolines, with emphasis on their synthesis, during the period from mid-2010 to early 2018.

Solvent and catalyst free ring expansion of indoles: a simple synthesis of highly functionalized benzazepines

Highly functionalized benzazepines have been synthesized from indoles via ring expansion. Ring contraction of benzazepines to indole derivatives has also been acheived in excellent yields.
