Abstract
N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis reaction protocol is disclosed for the synthesis of phthalidyl sulfonohydrazones. A broad range of N-tosyl hydrazones react effectively with phthalaldehyde derivatives under open-air conditions, enabling the formation of a new C-N bond via an oxidative path. The reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions with broad substrate scopes, wide functional group tolerance, and good to excellent yields. The mechanistic pathway is studied successfully using control experiments, competitive reactions, ESI-MS spectral analyses of the reaction mixture, and computational study by density functional theory. The potential use of one of the phthalidyl sulfonohydrazone derivatives as the inhibitor of β-ketoacyl acyl carrier protein synthase I of Escherichia coli is investigated using molecular docking.

Abstract
Herein, we have described a novel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed synthesis of N-substituted isoindolinone acetates. The presented transformation proceeds through NHC-catalyzed tandem imine umpolung-intramolecular aza-Michael addition followed by oxidation, while molecular oxygen in air acts as a sole oxidant. Atom efficiency, operational simplicity, large-scale syntheses, and mild reaction conditions are the salient features of this method. Mechanistic studies were indicative of the necessity of molecular oxygen in air as oxidant for the conversion of imine to amide.

Abstract
N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis is a by now consolidated organocatalytic platform for a number of synthetic (asymmetric) transformations via diverse reaction modes/intermediates. In addition to the typical umpolung processes involving acyl anion/homoenolate equivalent species, implementation of protocols under oxidative conditions greatly expands the possibilities of this methodology. Oxidative NHC-catalysis allows for oxidative and oxygenative transformations through specific manipulations of Breslow-type species depending upon the oxidant used (external oxidant or O2 /air), the derived NHC-bound intermediates paving the way to non-umpolung processes through activation of carbon atoms and heteroatoms. This review is intended to update the state of the art in oxidative NHC-catalyzed reactions that appeared in the literature from 2014 to present, with a strong focus to crucial intermediates and their mechanistic implications.

Abstract
We disclose herein an atroposelective synthesis of novel bridged biaryls containing medium-sized rings via N-heterocyclic carbene organocatalysis. The reaction starts with addition of the carbene catalyst to the aminophenol-derived aldimine substrate. Subsequent oxidation and intramolecular desymmetrization lead to the formation of 1,3-oxazepine-containing bridged biaryls in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. These novel bridged biaryl products can be readily transformed into chiral phosphite ligands. Preliminary density function theory calculations suggest that the origin of enantioselectivity arises from the more favorable frontier molecular orbital interactions in the transition state leading to the major product.

Abstract
Over the past decade, the catalysis of N-heterocyclic carbenes has achieved significant advances. In this area, aldehydes, enals, and esters, are commonly employed as starting materials through various catalytic activation modes. However, NHC-activated strategy of amide and its derivatives remains elusive. Described herein is the realization of asymmetric desymmetrization of N-Cbz glutarimides with alcohols through an imide C-N bond cleavage under NHC organocatalysis. A structurally diverse set of enantioenriched 4-amido esters is generated with acceptable yields and high enantioselectivities. This method features mild reaction conditions, excellent substrate scope, and excellent atom economy. DFT calculations have been performed to explore the detailed reaction mechanism and the origin of the enantioselectivity, which indicate that the strength of the C-H···O hydrogen bond and C–H⋯π interactions should be responsible for the stereoselectivity. The current strategy could open a door for efficient construction of (R)-Rolipram with excellent stereoselectivity. Desymmetrization of achiral building blocks is one of the most efficient ways to access enantiopure compounds of synthetic relevance. Here, the authors desymmetrize glutarimides with alcohols via an imide C–N bond cleavage under NHC organocatalysis.

Abstract
The reactivity umpolung of the C═N bond in the quinoxaline scaffold has been successfully realized for the first time by introduction of a formyl or an acyl group adjacent to the C-position of the C═N moiety. The reversed reactivity of the C═N bond thus enabled direct nucleophilic attack of alkyl Grignard reagents at the N-terminus rather than the C-terminus, thereby providing an unprecedented and efficient method for the synthesis of quinoxalin-2(1H)-one derivatives involving a tandem N-alkylation/C─C bond cleavage process.

Abstract
It is generally accepted that N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed imine transformations are initiated by a nucleophilic attack (NA) by NHC. However, due to significant nucleophilicity of the iminyl nitrogen atom in imines, the electrophilic attack (EA) by electrophiles onto imine would also be a possible mechanism of these kinds of reactions. Therefore, we use the quantum mechanical approach to disclose that both the NA and EA modes could be switchable for a wide range of NHC-catalyzed transformations of imines.

Umpolung N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis of non-aldehyde substrates offers new pathways for C-C bond formation, but has proven challenging to develop in terms of viable substrate classes. Here, we demonstrate that pyridinium ions can undergo NHC addition and subsequent intramolecular C-C bond formation through a deoxy-Breslow intermediate. The alkylation demonstrates, for the first time, that deoxy-Breslow intermediates are viable for catalytic umpolung of areniums.

We have developed an eco-friendly method for the conversion of imines to amides by using molecular oxygen in air as the sole oxidant and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as a green solvent under mild reaction conditions. Broad substrate scope, high yields and gram scale syntheses expand the practicality of the developed method.

Abstract
A variety of γ-keto-β-silyl esters and amides, most with extremely high enantioselectivities, were efficiently prepared via a carbene-catalyzed formal [4 + 2] annulation followed by ring opening with nucleophiles. The resulting compounds from this one-pot strategy can be easily converted into enantioenriched β,σ-dihydroxyl esters.

Abstract
The synthetic potential of imines as electrophiles or as a source of nucleophilic coupling partner in N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis for the synthesis of various nitrogen heterocycles and functionalized amines is highlighted in this Feature Article. Electrophilic imines are suitable candidates for intercepting the NHC-derived acyl anions, homoenolate equivalents, and (di)enolates for the synthesis of α-amino ketones and a variety of lactam derivatives. Moreover, enamines generated from imines bearing α-hydrogen could be trapped with α,β-unsaturated acylazoliums for the synthesis of functionalized dihydropyridinones. NHCs are also useful for the umpolung of imines for the generation of aza-Breslow intermediates thus leading to the synthesis of indoles, quinolines, dihydroquinoxalines etc. A concise account of the diverse reactivity of imines in NHC catalysis has been presented.

Abstract
Amides are among the most fundamental functional groups and essential structural units, widely used in chemistry, biochemistry and material science. Amide synthesis and transformations is a topic of continuous interest in organic chemistry. However, direct catalytic asymmetric activation of amide C-N bonds still remains a long-standing challenge due to high stability of amide linkages. Herein, we describe an organocatalytic asymmetric amide C-N bonds cleavage of N-sulfonyl biaryl lactams under mild conditions, developing a general and practical method for atroposelective construction of axially chiral biaryl amino acids. A structurally diverse set of axially chiral biaryl amino acids are obtained in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. Moreover, a variety of axially chiral unsymmetrical biaryl organocatalysts are efficiently constructed from the resulting axially chiral biaryl amino acids by our present strategy, and show competitive outcomes in asymmetric reactions.

Abstract
In the last ten years, the combination of Lewis acid with N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis has emerged as a powerful strategy in a variety of important asymmetric synthesis, due to the ready availability of starting materials, operational simplicity and mild reaction conditions. Recent findings illustrate that Lewis acid could largely enhance the efficiency and enantioselectivity, reverse the diastereoselectivity, and even influence the pathway of the same reaction partners. Herein, this review aims to reveal the recent advances in NHC-Lewis acid synergistically promoted enantioselective reactions for the expeditious assembly of versatile biologically important chiral pharmaceuticals and natural products.

Abstract
Oxotryptamines were firstly used as flexible four-atom synthons in an NHC-catalyzed formal [4+3] annulation, providing a novel enantioselective method to access structurally diverse spiro-ϵ-lactam oxindoles with excellent enantioselectivities. This metal-free reaction features a broad substrate scope, excellent functional-group tolerance and proceeds under mild reaction conditions. Importantly, enantiopure privileged hexahydropyrroloindoles could be easily constructed by a one-pot process from the resulting spiro-ϵ-lactam oxindoles.

Abstract
Herein, an efficient route to synthesize 6-hydroxyl butyrolactams has been successfully developed via an N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed formal [3 + 2] annulation of bromoenals with α-amino ketones, followed by reduction. Remarkably, enantioenriched epi-neoclausenamide, which is one of the clausenamide derivatives, could be efficiently prepared by this strategy.

Abstract
A novel strategy for the construction of 2,2-diacyl spirocyclohexanones 3 has been demonstrated on the basis of an NHC-catalyzed [3C + 3C] annulation of potassium 2-oxo-3-enoates with 2-ethylidene 1,3-indandiones. Furthermore, enantioenriched 3 was obtained in good to excellent yields with good enantioselectivities when chiral N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) was employed. Notably, ring opening of the resulting 2,2-diacyl spirocyclohexanones 3 with hydrazine led to the formation of phthalazinones in good to excellent yields.
