Abstract
A novel biomass-derived glucose-mediated one-pot multicomponent nitro-reductive cyclization method is presented for the direct synthesis of diverse pyrrole-fused heterocycles. The process involves two-component reactions of alkyl (NH)-pyrrole-2-carboxylates and 2-fluoronitroarenes, yielding pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-ones, as well as three-component reactions utilizing (NH)-pyrroles, nitroarenes, and DMSO as carbon sources, resulting in various pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline derivatives. High yields were achieved with broad substrate scope and gram-scale synthesis capability, including pharmaceuticals featuring pyrroloquinoxaline scaffolds. The method's key innovation lies in enabling three or four reactions in a single-pot setup, previously unexplored in pyrrole chemistry. The simplicity of nitro group reduction by biomass-derived glucose ensures practical safety during scale-up, while mechanistic insights from control experiments reveal a new paradigm in pyrrole chemistry. The tandem process demonstrates low PMI values and high step and atom economies, aligning well with green chemistry principles.

Abstract
An Fe-catalyzed visible-light induced condensation of alkylbenzenes with anthranilamides has been developed. Upon irradiation, the trivalent iron complex could generate chlorine radicals, which successfully abstracted the hydrogen of benzylic C-H bonds to form benzyl radicals. And these benzyl radicals were converted into oxygenated products under air conditions, which subsequently reacted with anthranilamides for the synthesis of quinazolinones.

Abstract
Herein, we present the iron-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of alcohol/methyl arene with 2-amino styrene to synthesize polysubstituted quinoline. Low-oxidation level substrates such as alcohols and methyl arenes are converted to aldehydes in the presence of an iron catalyst and di-t-butyl peroxide. Then, the quinoline scaffold is synthesized through imine condensation/radical cyclization/oxidative aromatization. Our protocol showed a broad substrate scope, and various functionalization and fluorescence applications of quinoline products demonstrated its synthetic ability.

Abstract
The replacement of fossil resources with biomass resources in the construction of N-heterocycles is rapidly attracting research interest. Herein, we report palladium-catalyzed selective hydrogenative coupling of nitroarenes and phenols based on a transfer hydrogenation strategy, allowing straightforward access to spirocyclic pyrrolo- and indolo-fused quinoxalines, a class of compounds found in numerous natural alkaloids. The synthetic protocol is characterized by a broad substrate scope and the utilization of biomass-derived reactants and commercially available catalysts. In such transformations, high-pressure and explosive hydrogen are not required. This report provides a new protocol for converting biomass-derived phenols into value-added nitrogen-containing chemicals.

Abstract
The synthesis of N-heterocycles composes a significant part of synthetic chemistry. In this report, a Cu(II)-catalyzed green and efficient synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline, quinazolin-4-one, and benzo[4,5]imidazoquinazoline derivatives was developed, employing N,N-dimethylethanolamine (DMEA) as a C1 synthon. Green oxidant O2 is critical in these transformations, facilitating the formation of a key intermediate─a reactive iminium ion. The method conducted under mild conditions is compatible with a diversity of functional groups, providing an appealing alternative to the previously developed protocols.

Abstract
N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as synthetic precursors contributing especially the methyl, acyl, and amino groups has played a significant role in heterocycle syntheses and functionalization. In this protocol, a wide range of pyrrolo/indolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines and quinazolin-4-ones were obtained in moderate to good yields by using elemental iodine without any metal or peroxides. We considered that N-methyl and N-acyl of DMF participate and complete the reaction separately through different mechanisms, which displayed potential still to be explored of DMF.
