Abstract
ConspectusThe selective functionalization/transformation of ubiquitous pyridine-fused N-heteroarenes is a practical method to synthesize structurally novel N-heterocycles, which is important for the development of medicines, bioactive agents, agrochemicals, materials, ligands, sensors, pigments, dyes, etc. However, owing to thermodynamic stability, kinetic inertness, and lone electron pair-induced catalyst deactivation of the pyridine-fused N-heteroarenes, limited strategies (e.g., C-H activation/functionalization, electrophilic substitution, and the Minisci reaction) are available to realize the synthetic purpose and maintain the aromaticity of the final products. Moreover, the relevant transformations have limitations such as needing harsh reaction conditions, requiring the preinstallation of specific coupling agents containing transformable functionalities or directing groups, using less environmentally benign oxidants and/or acidic activators, and poor selectivity. Herein, considering that imines, enamines, radicals, and cyclic amines are generated during the reduction of pyridine-fused N-heteroarenes, the precise transformation of these reductive intermediates offers a fundamental basis for developing novel tandem reactions. Our group revealed that a slow reduction rate, synergistic catalysis, and controlled electroreduction are effective strategies for fulfilling the selective reductive functionalization of pyridine-fused N-heteroarenes. Thus, we established a series of new synthetic methods that provide diverse construction modalities for functionalized N-heterocycles. The striking features of these synthetic methods include high efficiency, atom economy, and the use of readily accessible N-heteroarenes as transformable feedstocks in the absence of flammable and pressurized H2 gas, alongside a promising potential of the obtained N-heterocyclic products. The present study would be appealing to the fields of synthetic organic chemistry, catalysis, biomedical chemistry, and functional materials. This Account describes the application of reductive dearomatization as substrate-activating and tandem reaction-initiating modes and summarizes the reductive functionalization of pyridine-fused N-heteroarenes via selective alkylation, arylation, and annulation at nitrogen, α, β, and other remote carbon sites achieved over the past 8 years. Details regarding the development of new reactions and their plausible mechanisms and perspectives are discussed. We hope our contributions to this field will aid in the further development of novel strategies for the functionalization/transformation of pyridine-fused N-heteroarenes and tackle the intractable challenges in this area.

Abstract
Dearomatization reactions have become fundamental chemical transformations in organic synthesis since they allow for the generation of three-dimensional complexity from two-dimensional precursors, bridging arene feedstocks with alicyclic structures. When those processes are applied to pyridines, quinolines, and isoquinolines, partially or fully saturated nitrogen heterocycles are formed, which are among the most significant structural components of pharmaceuticals and natural products. The inherent challenge of those transformations lies in the low reactivity of heteroaromatic substrates, which makes the dearomatization process thermodynamically unfavorable. Usually, connecting the dearomatization event to the irreversible formation of a strong C-C, C-H, or C-heteroatom bond compensates the energy required to disrupt the aromaticity. This aromaticity breakup normally results in a 1,2- or 1,4-functionalization of the heterocycle. Moreover, the combination of these dearomatization processes with subsequent transformations in tandem or stepwise protocols allows for multiple heterocycle functionalizations, giving access to complex molecular skeletons. The aim of this review, which covers the period from 2016 to 2022, is to update the state of the art of nucleophilic dearomatizations of pyridines, quinolines, and isoquinolines, showing the extraordinary ability of the dearomative methodology in organic synthesis and indicating their limitations and future trends.

Abstract
Cationic iridium (Ir) complexes were found to catalyze the transfer hydrogenation of oximes to access N-alkoxy amines and hydroxylamines, and the reaction was accelerated by trifluoroacetic acid. The practical application of this protocol was demonstrated by a gram-scale transformation and two-step synthesis of the fungicide furmecyclox (BAS 389F) in overall yields of 92 and 85%, respectively. An asymmetric protocol using chiral Ir complexes to afford chiral N-alkoxy amines was demonstrated, but the low yields/ee obtained indicated that further development was required.

Abstract
Quinoline derivatives are frequently found in natural products and biologically active compounds, however, construction of quinoline fused polyheterocycles is the challenging goal in synthetic organic chemistry. In this regard, quinolinium salts meet the demand to a great level, as they can be synthesized readily and employed effectively for the rapid construction of condensed heterocyclic core. The present review focuses on recent (2015-2021) applications of different quinolinium salts that react with suitable partners to access diverse annulated products. Most of the reactions discussed here involve easily available starting materials, operationally simple, high atom efficiency and environmentally benign. Mechanistic aspects of representative transformations have also been highlighted for better understanding of reaction pathway.

Abstract
Under transition metal catalyst-free conditions, we herein present a hydride transfer-initiated construction of novel 3-(2-aminomethyl)aryl quinolines from N-isoquinolinium salts and 2-aminobenzaldehydes, proceeding with the merits of operational simplicity, high step and atom efficiency, good substrate and functional group compatibility, and mild conditions. The products are formed by reacting with the isoquinolyl motif as a two-carbon synthon along with the cleavage of its C3-N bond. Given the interesting applications of 3-aryl quinolines, the developed chemistry is anticipated to be further applied to develop new functional products.

Abstract
Despite having the capability to construct benzo-fused heterocycles in complete atom economy and high chemo-, regio-, enantio-, and diastereoselectivities, intramolecular Friedel-Crafts epoxide arene cyclization (IFCEAC) remains underutilized in organic synthesis. The wide adaptation of this powerful Csp2-Csp3 bond-forming reaction, therefore, requires a broad understanding of the substrate scope to better impact heterocycle synthesis. Along this line, we investigated the applicability of IFCEAC for the synthesis of 1,7- and 1,2-fused indoles. In this article, we report the results of our systematic investigation into the scope and limitations of the first examples of the hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP)-mediated IFCEAC of readily accessible indolyl-N-tethered epoxides. We observed that the nature and position of the indole and epoxide substituents and the tether length separating these two reacting moieties have strong effects on the cyclization. This mild and transition-metal-free protocol delivered pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-5-ols in moderate to good yields from substrates bearing both a methylene linker that connects the indole and epoxide moieties and an electron-rich indole carbocyclic ring. Notably, the reactions required the presence of a π-activating aryl substituent on the reacting epoxide carbon atom. Interestingly, replacing the methylene tether with an ethylene unit resulted in regioswitching, which delivered the corresponding tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]indol-8-ols in good to high yields. We could also successfully extend this methodology to pyrrolyl-N-tethered epoxides for a very high-yielding synthesis of tetrahydroindolizin-7-ols.
