Abstract
The utilization of photogenerated carbene species to perform N-H insertion reactions has attracted considerable attention in the past few years. In this Article, we disclose a visible-light-promoted N-H insertion of 3-aminomethylated maleimides with aryl diazoacetates under sole blue LED irradiation. Continuous flow reactor technology was exploited to improve the reaction efficiency. By simply varying the reaction conditions, the formed N-H insertion products could be selectively transferred to bioimportant octahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrroles and E-selective trisubstituted olefins.

Abstract
The present review contains a representative sampling of mechanistic studies, which have appeared in the literature in the last 5 years, on 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions, using DFT calculations. Attention is focused on the mechanistic insights into 1,3-dipoles of propargyl/allenyl type and allyl type such as aza-ylides, nitrile oxides and azomethyne ylides and nitrones, respectively. The important role played by various metal-chiral-ligand complexes and the use of chiral eductors in promoting the site-, regio-, diastereo- and enatioselectivity of the reaction are also outlined.

Chemistry 2023; 29:e202302609.

Abstract
The stereodivergent asymmetric synthesis of 2,5-trans/cis pyrrolidines by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition using two different types of activated alkenes is described. When ylidene-isoxazolones were employed as dipolarophiles, the Ag/(S,Sp )-iPr-FcPHOX-catalyzed asymmetric [3+2] cycloaddition of imino lactones proceeded with 2,5-trans selectivity. Subsequent decarboxylation of the isoxazolone rings produced pyrrolidines with 2,5-trans stereoretention. In the reaction using acyclic enones as activated alkenes, the Ag/(R,Sp )-ThioClickFerrophos complex-catalyzed asymmetric [3+2] cycloaddition afforded 2,5-cis substituted pyrrolidines in high yields and enantioselectivities. Therefore, these methods can be considered as a formal stereodivergent synthesis of 2,5-cis/trans pyrrolidines.

Abstract
The pseudo-multicomponent reaction between propargyl amine, an aldehyde and an electron-deficient alkene is described. The C-H activation takes place thermally and allows the obtaining of cycloadducts in very good yields with high diastereoselectivities. The relative configuration is determined by X-ray diffraction analysis of the chiral molecule, obtained as a single diastereoisomer, using a chiral maleimide. A brief study of the stability of the possible ylides involved in the process is also mentioned, confirming the high diastereoselectivity observed. The high functional group density of these cycloadducts permits the synthesis of complex heterocycles. After allylation or propargylation of the pyrrolidine nitrogen atom, RCM-DA cycloaddition or cyclotrimerization with an alkyne is studied, respectively. In this last example, the resulting tetracyclic structures are of potential interest as drugs for the treatment of cystic fibrosis.

Abstract
A novel four-component reaction in one pot as an atom- and step-economic process was developed to synthesize diastereoselectively spirooxindolepyrrolothiazoles through sequential N,S-acetalation of aldehydes with cysteine and decarboxylative [3 + 2] cycloaddition with olefinic oxindoles. High synthetic efficiency, operational simplification and reaction process economy using EtOH as solvent, and only releasing CO2 and H2O as side products confer this approach favorable in green chemistry metrics analysis.

Abstract
1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of 2- and 3-nitrobenzaldehydes with 2-aminomethylpyridine and ethyl (2E)-2-cyano-3-(4-nitrophenyl)prop-2-enoate yielded endo-cycloadducts as the sole products under various reaction conditions. Fortuitously, 4-nitrobenzaldehyde behaved differently in three- and four-component cascades to produce a mixture of endo- and exo'-cycloadducts. This reaction is solvent- and temperature-dependent, and consequently, both the endo- and exo'-cycloadducts were synthesized in an excellent regio-, stereo-, and chemoselective fashion. Retro-1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of the endo-cycloadducts were conducted under mild reaction conditions, and the generated syn-dipoles were stereomutated into anti-dipoles which recycloadded with the dipolarophiles to provide the exo'-cycloadducts. Mechanistic studies were carried out to support the proposed mechanisms. Unprecedentedly, particular arylidene scaffolds participated as aldehyde or activated methylene precursors. Density functional theory calculations were performed to shed light on the importance of AcOH in the generation and isomerization of dipoles and to explain the high selectivity and the possibility of retro-cycloaddition.

Abstract
Multilayer graphene (MLG), obtained by mild sonication of graphite in NMP or pyridine, was fully characterized via atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS). Then, it was functionalized via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with azomethine ylides generated by thermal 1,2-prototropy of various imino esters. The resulting MLG, containing substituted proline-based amine functions, was characterized by XPS and it showed high nitrogen loading, ranging from 0.6 to 4.2 at% depending on the imino ester used. Among these functionalized MLGs a probe sample was subjected to ester hydrolysis and used as a heterogeneous N,O-chelating ligand to coordinate iridium atomic centers. This supported complex was also characterized by XPS and its catalytic activity was tested in the hydrogen transfer reduction of acetophenone, obtaining up to 85% yield. Furthermore, this catalyst could be recycled up to four times.

Abstract
Nonstabilized azomethine ylides derived from decarboxylation of oxazolidin-5-ones were used for double 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions in diastereoselective synthesis of pyrrolidine-containing tetracyclic compounds. This is the first example of one-pot and five-component reactions involving two nonstabilized azomethine ylides. Only CO2 and water were generated as byproducts.
