Abstract
A highly efficient, in situ formed CuCl2/TMEDA catalytic system (TMEDA = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylene-diamine) for the cross-coupling reaction of aryl acetonitriles with benzyl alcohols is reported. This user-friendly protocol, employing a low catalyst loading and a catalytic amount of base, leads to the synthesis of α-alkylated nitriles in up to 99% yield. Experimental mechanistic investigations reveal that the key step of this transformation is the C(sp3)-H functionalization of the alcohol, taking place via a hydrogen atom abstraction, with the simultaneous formation of copper-hydride species. Detailed density functional theory studies shed light on all reaction steps, confirming the catalytic pathway proposed on the basis of the experimental findings.

Abstract
EMM (electromagnetic mill)-promoted Pd-catalyzed solid state intramolecular Heck-type cyclization/boronation and Suzuki couplings are reported. Compared to previous mechanochemistry that constructed one chemical bond through a cross-coupling reaction, this strategy realizes cascade transformation along with multiple chemical bond formation. This conversion does not require organic solvents or additional heating, and it shows a good substrate scope and high functional group tolerance.

Abstract
Natural goods, medications, and pharmaceutically active substances all contain substituted oxindoles. Generally, the C-3 stereocenter of the substituents of oxindoles and their absolute arrangement have a substantial impact on the bioactivity of these substances. In this case, the desire for contemporary probe and drug-discovery programs for the synthesis of chiral compounds using desirable scaffolds with high structural diversity further drives research in this field. Also, the new synthetic techniques are generally simple to apply for the synthesis of other similar scaffolds. Herein, we review the distinct approaches for the synthesis of diverse useful oxindole scaffolds. Specifically, the research findings on the naturally existing 2-oxindole core and a variety of synthetic compounds having a 2-oxindole core are discussed. We present an overview of the construction of oxindole-based synthetic and natural products. In addition, the chemical reactivity of 2-oxindole and its related derivatives in the presence of chiral and achiral catalysts are thoroughly discussed. The data compiled herein provides broad information related to the bioactive product design, development, and applications of 2-oxindoles and the reported techniques will be helpful for the investigation of novel reactions in the future.

Abstract
Metal-catalyzed cyclizative cross-coupling reactions have attracted enormous attention due to their unique cascade nature. We demonstrated, herein, a dual-cyclizative coupling of ynone oxime ethers with acrylamides for the synthesis of methylene-linked isoxazolyl 2-oxindoles. The cascade was triggered by a palladium(II)-catalyzed ynone oxime ether cyclization, which underwent a Heck-type coupling intercepted by an aryl iodide insertion. Control experiments were carried out to understand the mechanism.

This reaction provides a new method for the rapid synthesis of cyano-substituted oxindoles and isoquinoline-1,3-diones and features high functional group tolerance. In addition, an enantioselective version was developed for the construction of enantiomerically enriched 3-cyanomethyl oxindole. This method has also been applied to the synthesis of natural alkaloids (+)-esermethole and (+)-physostigmine.

Abstract
The oxindole scaffold is a privileged structural motif that is found in a variety of bioactive targets and natural products. Moreover, derivatives of the oxindole structure are widely present in a number of biologically relevant compounds and are key intermediates in the synthesis of diverse natural products and pharmaceuticals. Therefore, novel methods to obtain oxindoles remain of high priority in synthetic organic chemistry.Over the past several decades, novel transition-metal-catalyzed methodologies have been applied toward the synthesis of a variety of heterocycles. A detailed mechanistic understanding facilitates the disruption of traditional catalytic pathways to access useful synthetic intermediates. The strategies employed have generally revolved around the generation of high-energy organometallic intermediates, which undergo cyclization reactions through domino processes. Domino cyclization methodologies are therefore attractive, as they allow facile access to functionalized oxindoles containing all-carbon quaternary centers or tetrasubstituted olefins with high chemo- and stereoselectivities. Furthermore, these developed synthetic strategies can often be easily applied in the syntheses of other related scaffolds.In this Account, we discuss the three unique strategies that our group has leveraged for the synthesis of valuable oxindole scaffolds. The first section in this Account outlines the use of an initial oxidative addition to a C(sp2)-X bond, followed by a migratory insertion, yielding a neopentyl species amenable to a variety of subsequent functionalizations. From this reactive neopentyl metal species, we have reported C-X reductive eliminations, anionic capture cascade reactions, and intramolecular C-H functionalization processes. The second section of this Account summarizes our group's findings on 1,2-insertions of a metal-nucleophile species across an unsaturation, generating a reactive organometallic intermediate; subsequent reactions with tethered electrophiles form the desired heterocyclic core. We have explored a wide array of transition metal-catalyzed strategies using this approach, including rhodium-catalyzed conjugate additions, an asymmetric copper-catalyzed borylcupration, and a palladium(II)-catalyzed chloropalladation protocol. The final section of this Account details the use of dual-metal catalysis to perform a cyclization through a C-H functionalization-allylation domino reaction. Throughout this Account, we provide details of mechanistic studies that better enabled our understanding of the domino processes.Overall, our group has developed methods exploiting the unique reactivity of palladium, nickel, copper, rhodium, and ruthenium catalysts to develop methods toward a wide array of oxindole scaffolds. On the basis of the utility, diversity, and applicability of the strategies developed, we believe that they will prove to be highly useful in the syntheses of other important targets and inspire further development and mechanistic understanding of various metal-catalyzed processes.

Abstract
A mild visible-light-induced Pd-catalyzed intramolecular C-H arylation of amides is reported. The method operates by cleavage of a C(sp2 )-O bond, leading to hybrid aryl Pd-radical intermediates. The following 1,5-hydrogen atom translocation, intramolecular cyclization, and rearomatization steps lead to valuable oxindole and isoindoline-1-one motifs. Notably, this method provides access to products with readily enolizable functional groups that are incompatible with traditional Pd-catalyzed conditions.

Abstract
The first example of metal-free cyanomethylenation from alkyl nitriles of sp3 C-H bonds to afford quaternary carbon centers is described. This oxidative protocol is operationally simple and features good functional group compatibility. This method provides a novel approach to highly functionalized fluorene and oxindole derivatives, which are commonly used in material and pharmaceutical areas. Control experiments provide evidence of a radical reaction process.

Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed diastereoselective dearomatization of N-(2-bromobenzoyl)indoles by an arylation/heteroarylation sequence is reported. Diverse functionalized indolines are accessed in good to excellent yields and selectivity. Studies conducted on the effects of copper in the reaction revealed that, along with improving conversions, the additive inhibits epimerization of the product.

Abstract
A novel nickel-catalyzed cycloisomerization reaction forming a new carbon-carbon bond while preserving the carbon-halogen bond has been developed. A cheap and readily available Ni-catalyst is employed to generate nitrogen containing heterocycles in good to excellent yields and the procedure is readily scalable. The more readily available aryl bromides were also cyclized with the addition of potassium iodide to generate the respective alkyl iodides. A rare dual ligand system employing a bisphosphine and bisphosphine monoxide was used to achieve enantioenriched products.
