Abstract
Herein, a visible-light-promoted radical cascade cyclization of heterocyclic ketene aminals (HKAs) and thiocyanates was developed to access functionalized fused 2-iminothiazolines. This novel cascade reaction can be realized under only visible-light irradiation without the help of external photocatalysts, oxidants, and additives. These multicomponent cascade reactions demonstrate excellent selectivity for the Z-isomers and ensure the formation of the products only in their isomeric form. Preliminary mechanism investigations demonstrated that HKAs and thiocyanates can form electron donor-acceptor complexes for harvesting the energy of visible light to activate substrates and generate reactive radicals. This protocol can be used for synthesizing various natural-like products such as fused 2-iminothiazolines. This approach demonstrates multiple advantages such as commercially available substrates, convenient operation, environmentally friendly, mild conditions, and an efficient multicomponent reaction (2A + B).

Abstract
We developed a protocol for the synthesis of highly functionalized 5,6-dihydro-imidazo[1,2-c][1,2,3]triazole derivatives 4-5 (DHITs) from 1-diazonaphthalen-2(1H)-one derivatives with heterocyclic ketene aminals (HKAs). This strategy involved cycloaddition and skeletal rearrangement entailing the heating of a mixture of substrates 1 with HKAs 2-3 and THF without any catalyst. As a result, a series of DHITs 4-5 were produced by cleaving one bond (1 C═N bond) and forming three bonds (1 N-N and 2 C-N bonds) in a single step. This protocol achieved the dual functionalization of diazo building blocks involving both the aromatic nitrogen alkylation reaction to form an ArC-N bond without any metal catalyst and the intermolecular cycloaddition of the N═N bond. These strategies can be used to synthesize functionalized DHITs for combinatorial and parallel syntheses via one-pot reactions without any catalyst.

Abstract
Recently, transition metal-catalyzed ortho-C-H bond activation/annulations involving two internal alkyne molecules have been extensively used to synthesize highly substituted polycyclic aromatic scaffolds. Such reactions have emerged as a powerful atom and step-economical strategy for the assembly of multifunctional bioactive molecules. In this context, we focused on the recent achievements of dual C-H bond activation/annulations, as well as functionalization reactions involving diaryl/alkyl alkynes.

Abstract
A transition metal-free concise and efficient protocol for the synthesis of thiocyanated aminomaleimides and benzo[e][1,4]thiazepine derivatives has been developed. The method involves an initial α-C-H thiocyanation of aminomaleimides with KSCN and TEMPO-mediated tandem S-CN bond cleavage/intramolecular cyclization substitution processes, which enables the formation of seven-membered S/N-heterocycles. This synthetic strategy provides a reliable method for the synthesis of biologically interesting benzo[e][1,4]thiazepine derivatives by using KSCN as sulfur sources as well as expands the application of enaminones thiocyanation reactions in heterocycles synthesis.

Abstract
The enantioselective allylic alkylation of nitro ketene aminals with racemic allylic alcohols was realized by iridium/acid dual catalysis. An allyl group was installed on the α-position of nitro ketene aminals in a branched-selective manner in high efficiency with excellent enantioselectivities (93-99% ee). The protocol was applied to the late-stage modification of neonicotinoid insecticides, which directly furnished a novel neonicotinoid analogue with good insecticidal activity against Aphis craccivora (LC50 = 6.40 mg/L). On the basis of the control experiment, an aza-ene-type allylic alkylation reaction mechanism was proposed.

Abstract
An unprecedented protocol for a Rh(III)-catalyzed [3 + 2] annulation from simple and readily available enaminones and iodonium ylides has been developed. The novel strategy allows for access to a new class of structurally diverse tetrahydro-indolones with high efficiency and a broad substrate scope. In addition, this transformation represents the first example of the selective Rh(III)-catalyzed alkenyl C-H bond functionalization and annulation of enaminones. Finally, the potential applications of this protocol are demonstrated through gram-scale reaction and late-stage modification.
