Abstract
The diverse synthesis of heterocyclic compounds has always been one of the popular subjects of organic chemistry. To this end, great efforts have been devoted to developing new reagents and establishing new strategies and methods concerning efficiency, selectivity and sustainability. β-Oxodithioesters and their enol tautomers (i.e., α-enolic dithioesters), as a class of simple and readily accessible sulfur-containing synthons, have been widely applied in the construction of various five- and six-membered heterocycles (e.g., thiophenes, thiopyrans, thiazoles, pyridines and quinolines) and other useful open-chain frameworks. Due to their unique chemical structures, β-oxodithioesters bear multiple reaction sites, which enable them to participate in two-component or multicomponent reactions to construct various heterocyclic compounds. In the past decade, the application of β-oxodithioesters in the synthesis of heterocycles has made remarkable progress. Herein, an update on the recent advances in the application of β-oxodithioesters in the synthesis of heterocycles during the period from 2013 to 2023/06 is provided. According to the different types of rings concerning heteroatoms in products, this review is divided into five sections under discussion including (i) synthesis of sulfur-containing heterocycles, (ii) synthesis of sulfur and nitrogen-containing heterocycles, (iii) synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocycles, (iv) synthesis of nitrogen and oxygen-containing heterocycles, and (v) modification to other open-chain frameworks.

Abstract
An operationally simple and efficient domino etiquette has been developed for the facile construction of 1,2-dithioles employing easily accessible dithioesters as a three-atom CCS synthon and aryl isothiocyanates as a two-atom CS unit in the absence of any catalyst and additive at room temperature under open air. The reaction proceeded efficiently affording the desired 1,2-dithioles in good yields having various functional groups of a diverse electronic and steric nature. This approach avoids possible toxicity and tiresome workup conditions and features easy to handle, cheap, and readily accessible reagents, O2 as a green oxidant, and gram-scale ability. Notably, the final S-S bond formation and cascade ring construction follow a radical pathway, which has been recognized via a radical trapping experiment with BHT during the course of the reaction. Notably, the exocyclic C═N bond at position 3 of 1,2-dithiole possesses Z stereochemistry.

Abstract
The three-component reactions of enaminones, α-diazo esters/ketones, and t-butyl nitrite (TBN) for the switchable synthesis of isomeric isoxazoles have been realized. The catalysis with Cu(II) salt provides 3,4-disubsituted isoxazoles via [3 + 2] cycloaddition. On the other hand, the catalysis of Ag(I) with identical substrates leads to isomeric isoxazoles with reversed C3 and C4 substitution based on a key [2 + 1] cycloaddition.

Abstract
The unique properties of ketoximes are used prominently for the synthesis of heterocycles. In contrast, their potential to absorb light and photoelectron transfer processes remains challenging. Widespread interest in controlling direct excitation of ketoxime tacticity unlocks unconventional reaction pathways, enabling photochemical intramolecular skeletal modification to constitute alkynyl sulfides that cannot be realized via traditional activation. Despite decades of advancements, the alkynyl sulfides, particularly those composed of polar functionalities and derived from renewable sources, remain unknown. These findings demonstrate the importance of decelerated ketoxime from β-oxodithioester for the identification of reaction conditions. The method uses mild reaction conditions to generate excited-state photoreductant for the functionalization of an array of alkynyl sulfides. Additionally, a fundamental understanding of elementary steps using electrochemical and spectroscopic techniques/experiments revealed a PCET pathway to this transformation, while the involved substrates and their properties with improved economical tools indicated the translational potential of this method.

Nucleophilic Acylation with Aromatic Aldehydes to 2 Bromoacetonitrile: An Umpolung Strategy for the Synthesis of Active Methylene Compounds. Curr Org Synth 2020; 17:518-524. [PMID: 32538728 DOI: 10.2174/1570179417666200615153536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2020] [Revised: 05/11/2020] [Accepted: 05/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND A novel one-pot N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalysed acylation of 2- bromoacetonitrile with aromatic aldehydes is reported. The protocol involves carbonyl umpolung reactivity of aldehydes in which the carbonyl carbon attacks nucleophilically (as d1 nucleophile) on the electrophilic terminal of 2-bromoacetonitrile to afford 3-aryl-3-oxopropanenitrile. The salient features of this procedure are short reaction time, operational simplicity, ambient temperature, no by-product formation and high yields. MATERIALS AND METHODS A flame-dried round bottom flask was charged with Imidazolium salts (3a) (0.20 mmol). Aldehyde 1a (1.0 mmol), 2-bromoacetonitrile 2 (1.0 mmol), and THF / t-BuOH 5 mL; 10:1) were added at positive nitrogen pressure followed by the addition of DBU (0.15 mmol) through stirring. The resulting yellow- orange solution was stirred at room temperature for 5-6 h. After completion of the reaction (TLC monitored), the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The product was purified using hexane / EtOAc (10:1) as an eluent to provide analytically pure compound 4a. Physical data of representative compounds and the NMR spectroscopic data are in agreement with the literature value. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The salient features of this procedure are short reaction time, operational simplicity, ambient temperature, no by-product formation and high yields. CONCLUSION To sum up, we have developed a convenient, efficient and one-pot route for 3-oxo-3- phenylpropanenitrile synthesis from NHC promoted direct nucleophilic acylation of aromatic aldehydes using 2- bromoacetonitrile. This method provided a wide range of products and good yields. To best of our knowledge, this is the new report for the synthesis of 3-oxo-3-phenylpropanenitrile through NHC promoted nucleophilic acylation of aromatic aldehyde.
