Abstract
The incorporation of oxygen atoms from air under aerobic conditions plays an important role in organic synthesis. Herein, Brønsted acids are found to be a two-in-one strategic catalyst to transform enamines from β-oxoamides and amines to pyrrolin-4-ones without an external photocatalyst under visible-light conditions. The Brønsted acid can inhibit the C-C bond fragmentation of the [2 + 2] adduct from enamine and 1O2, but most importantly, it can form photosensitizers with enamine and pyrrolin-4-one product by acidochromism to promote the 1O2 generation.

Abstract
A simple and concise method for the synthesis of cinnolines has been developed by the reactions of readily available enaminones and aryl diazonium tetrafluoroboronates. The reactions run efficiently to provide cinnolines with broad diversity in the substructure by heating in dimethyl sulfoxide without using any catalyst or additive. In addition, the primary investigation of the anti-inflammatory activity of these products leads to the observation of p-chlorobenzoyl (3f) and p-nitrobenzoyl (3j) cinnolines as attractive anti-inflammatory compounds in vitro.

Abstract
Imidazoles are among the most important pharmacophores in medicinal chemistry. Herein we report a tandem protocol for the synthesis of highly substituted imidazoles through Pummerer-like rearrangement induced cascade reactions including two carbon-nitrogen bond formations, and concomitant aromatization under mild reaction conditions. This procedure gives imidazole derivatives bearing numerous functional groups and could be used for modifying natural products as well as pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
An iodine-promoted domino reaction of aurones with amidines has been successfully explored. The reaction proceeds in a consecutive manner containing Michael addition, iodination, cyclization from intramolecular nucleophilic substitution, and dehydrogenative aromatization from spiro ring opening. Following this novel strategy, a variety of 1,2,4-trisubstituted 5-(o-hydroxybenzoyl)imidazoles were efficiently synthesized in moderate to good yields from readily available starting materials. A plausible mechanism has been proposed.

Abstract
The Dess-Martin periodinane (DMP) reagent-mediated reactions of tertiary enaminones with potassium thiocyanate for the synthesis of thiazole-5-carbaldehydes are developed. The product formation involves cascade hydroxyl thiocyanation of the C═C double bond, intramolecular hydroamination of the C≡N bond, and thiazole annulation by condensation on the ketone carbonyl site, representing novel reaction pathways in the reactions between enaminones and thiocyanate salt. DMP plays dual roles in mediating the free radical thiocyanation and inducing the unconventional selective thiazole-5-carbaldehyde formation by masking the in situ generated formyl group during the reaction process.
