Abstract
A copper-catalyzed [4+2] cyclization reaction of isoquinolines and alkynes is developed for the one-step construction of isoquinolinone derivatives with multisubstituted bridging rings. The unique feature of this three-component tandem cyclization reaction is the functionalization of the C1, N2, C3, and C4 positions of 3-haloisoquinolines via the construction of new C-N, C═O, and C-C bonds. This dearomatization strategy for the synthesis of structurally complex isoquinolinone-bridged cyclic compounds offers good chemoselectivity, broad functional group compatibility, greenness, and high step economy.

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
By a hydroamination-induced tandem annulation process, we herein report a new three-component reaction for room temperature construction of carbo-bridged polyheterocycles with exclusive diastereoselectivity, which features readily available feedstocks, catalyst-free conditions, good substrate and functionality compatibility, no need for transition metal catalysts, and high step and atom efficiency. The products are formed via initial formation of 1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one nucleophiles from but-2-ynedioates and hydrazine followed by 2,4-difunctionalization of N-heteroarenium salts. Given that the obtained products possess structurally important tetrahydroquinoline and pyranopyrazole motifs, the developed chemistry is anticipated to be further applied to the discovery of functional molecules including biomedical ones.

Abstract
Dearomatization reactions provide a rapid approach to construct complicated molecules that are difficult to synthesize by traditional methods from simple aromatic compounds. Herein, we report an efficient dearomative [3+2] cycloaddition reaction of 2-alkynyl pyridines with diarylcyclopropenones, leading to the synthesis of densely functionalized indolizinones in moderate to good yields under metal-free conditions. In addition, this strategy can also be employed in dearomative cyclization of isoquinolines to access a variety of benzo-fused indolizinones. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that an appropriate substituent at the 2-position of pyridine is crucial to the dearomatization process.

Abstract
General access to highly valuable seven-membered rings via Büchner-type reaction remains a formidable challenge. Here we report a Cu-catalyzed intermolecular oxidation of alkynes using N-oxides as oxidants, which enables expedient preparation of valuable benzo[6,7]azepino[2,3-b]quinolines and pyridine-based diones. Importantly, in contrast to the well-established gold-catalyzed intermolecular alkyne oxidation, the dissociated pyridine or quinoline partner could be further utilized to construct N-heterocycles in this system and the reaction most likely proceeds by a Büchner-type ring expansion pathway. A mechanistic rationale for this cascade cyclization is supported by DFT calculations.

Abstract
Herein, we report a substrate-directed diverse synthetic strategy toward two kinds of structurally intriguing fused indole polycycles through Rh(II)-catalyzed cascade reactions of bis(diazo)indolin-2-ones with enaminones. The subtle structural changes in enaminones lead to different reactivities. Cyclic enaminones produce indolo[2,3-b]indoles, whereas acyclic ones afford oxazolo[3,2-a]indoles.

Abstract
An interrupted dearomative reduction strategy was developed to transform planar chalcone-based pyridinium salts into structurally intriguing bridged piperidines in a completely regio- and diastereoselective manner. This reaction proceeded successfully by using cheap and easily accessible NaBH4 as the reductant under mild conditions without exclusion of oxygen or use of special equipment.

Abstract
Michael/ammonolysis cascade reactions between cyclohexane-1,3-dione-derived enaminones and olefinic azlactones via phase-transfer catalysis have been developed. This method provides rapid access to a suite of architecturally complex and diverse quinoline-2,5-diones bearing a secondary amide group at the C-3 position in moderate to excellent yields (53-94%) and with excellent diastereoselectivities (>99 : 1 dr in most cases). The achievement of a preparative-scale reaction and the diverse product derivatization that can be obtained highlight the application potential of this protocol both in academic and industrial settings. An investigation of the reaction mechanism implies that tetrabutylammonium hydroxide may be the actual catalyst during this cascade reaction.

This represents the first oxidative sulfonyloxylation/azirination of β-enamino esters with PIDA and sulfonic acid for access to sulfonyloxy-2H-azirine. Hypervalent iodine reagents enable cascade C-O/C-N bond formation. Furthermore, a possible reaction pathway was proposed based on the experimental results.

Abstract
An unprecedented cascade strategy consisting of polarity reversal, normal electron-demand Diels-Alder cycloaddition and skeletal remodeling was developed to construct novel pyridine-fused nitrones in up to 82% yield. The key to the success was the umpolung process, which transformed the electron-deficient 3-nitropyridinium ring into a reactive, π-extended cyclic nitroalkene, serving as a rarely reported hetero-diene to participate in normal Diels-Alder cycloadditions.

We report an unexpected dearomative periphery modification strategy for transforming quinolinium salts into structurally crowded pyrrolidine-tetrahydroquinoline polycyclic systems with complete regio- and diastereoselectivity. Importantly, the reaction pathway was regulated by simply tuning the substituents, achieving substituent-directed divergent synthesis. The notable features of this transformation include readily available starting materials, green conditions, a simple workup procedure, high bond- and ring-forming efficiency, and substituent-directed diverse synthesis.

Abstract
Simultaneous deconstructive ring-opening and skeletal reconstruction of an inert, aromatic pyridinium ring is of great importance in synthetic communities. However, research in this area is still in its infancy. Here, a skeletal re-modeling strategy was developed to transform chalcone-based pyridinium salts into structurally intriguing polycyclic isoindolines through a dearomative ring-opening/ring-closing sequence. Two distinct driving forces for the deconstruction of the pyridinium core were involved in these transformations. One was the unprecedented harnessing of the instability of in situ generated cyclic β-aminoketones, and the other was the instability of the resultant N,N-ketals. The desired isoindoline polycycles could undergo the Wittig reaction with various phosphorus ylides to achieve structural diversity and complexity. Notably, by tuning the Wittig conditions by addition of one equivalent of base, an additional bridged ring was introduced. A plausible mechanism was proposed on the basis of control experiments and theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Bridged polycycles are privileged molecular skeletons with wide occurrence in bioactive natural products and pharmaceuticals. Therefore, they have been the pursing target molecules of numerous chemists. The rapid and convenient generation of sp3-rich complex three-dimensional molecular skeletons from simple and easily available aromatics has made dearomatization a highly valuable synthetic tool for the construction of rigid and challenging bridged rings. This review summarizes the-state-of-the-art advances of dearomatization strategies in the application of bridged ring formation, discusses their advantages and limitations and the in-depth mechanism, and highlights their synthetic value in the total synthesis of natural products. We wish this review will provide an important reference for medicinal and synthetic chemists and will inspire further development in this intriguing research area.

Abstract
Reported herein is an unexpected construction of functionalized π-extended indolizine polycycles through a one-pot two-step cascade process comprising the base-promoted dearomative [3+2] cycloaddition of quinilinium salts and 3-alkenyl oxindoles, followed by a DDQ-mediated oxidative decarbonylation. Moreover, we could achieve the substrate-controlled diverse synthesis of structurally strained cyclopropane spirooxindole by using pyridinium salts as starting materials.

Abstract
The single point activation of pyridines, using an electron-deficient benzyl group, facilitates the ruthenium-catalysed dearomative functionalisation of a range of electronically diverse pyridine derivatives. This transformation delivers hydroxymethylated piperidines in good yields, allowing rapid access to medicinally relevant small heterocycles. A noteworthy feature of this work is that paraformaldehyde acts as both a hydride donor and an electrophile in the reaction, enabling the use of cheap and readily available feedstock chemicals. Removal of the activating group can be achieved readily, furnishing the free NH compound in only 2 steps. The synthetic utility of the method was illustrated with a synthesis of (±)-Paroxetine. Pyridines can be activated at a single point with a new benzyl group, followed by dearomative functionalisation at C3 using formaldehyde.![]()

Abstract
An enantioselective cascade reaction of N-alkylpyridinium and -quinolinium salts with o-hydroxybenzylideneacetones to access fused polyheterocycles through cross dienamine-mediated addition followed by trapping of the dearomatized enamine-type intermediates and aminal formation has been developed. A cascade assembly of N-benzyl-4-methylpyridinium salt and cyclic 2,4-dienones is further disclosed to give bridged frameworks via repetitive dearomatization and aromatization activation.
