Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed intermolecular [2 + 2 + 2] oxidative coupling-annulation of terminal alkenes and alkynes using copper(II) as the oxidant has been developed through direct C-C bond formation. These reactions provide effective access to multiaryl-substituted benzenes with high regioselectivity in the absence of any ligands. The features of this protocol are broad substrate scope, and high atom and step economy. The aggregation-induced emission properties of selected products were further investigated. These synthesized multiaryl-substituted benzenes may be worth exploring for further applications in the fields of advanced functional materials or drugs.

[PMID: 38453892 PMCID: PMC10920648 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-45346-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024] Open
Abstract
The architectural design of polycyclic/multisubstituted pentafulvenes has demonstrated great potential for the development of electrochromic materials and biologically active motifs. Unfortunately, the enantioselective construction of such distinctive cores with all carbon quaternary chiral centers has remained untouched to date. Herein, we disclose an enantioselective homologating annulation of cyclopent-4-ene-dione with 3-cyano-4-methylcoumarins through L-tert-leucine derived thiourea catalysis, affording a wide range of enantioenriched polycyclic multisubstituted embedded aminopentafulvenes with excellent stereocontrol (up to 99:1 er) and chemical yields up to 87%. A detailed photophysical and cytotoxicity analysis of racemic and chiral homologated adducts unveils the exceptional behavior of chiral adducts over their racemic analogs, highlighting the importance of stereoselectivity of the developed scaffolds. A cellular uptake experiment in a mammalian fibroblast cell line confirmed the potential of developed polycyclic aminopentafulvene cores as a highly promising labeling dye that can be utilized for bioimaging without any adverse effects.

Abstract
A facile and convenient protocol for the regioselective construction of functionalized 2-hydroxybenzophenones is described. This protocol involves the Sc(OTf)3/BF3·OEt2-catalyzed benzannulation of 2-vinyloxirans with 3-formylchromone, which involves cascade in situ diene formation, [4 + 2] cycloaddition, elimination, and ring-opening strategies. Moreover, it provides an expedited synthetic pathway to access biologically intriguing 1,4-naphthoquinones and anthraquinones including vitamin K3 and tectoquinone. The synthesized compounds also hold potential for use as UV filters and show promise as chemosensors for Cu2+ and Mg2+ ions.

Abstract
The mechanism of the Ac-Gly-OH-assisted palladium-catalyzed [3 + 2] annulation of aromatic amides with maleimides is investigated using density functional theory calculations. The results show that the reaction undergoes the sequential steps of N-H bond deprotonation, first benzylic C-H bond activation, maleimide insertion, second meta-C-H bond activation, reductive elimination, and oxidation. The external ligand Ac-Gly-OH acts as the internal base for hydrogen abstraction in the first benzylic C-H bond activation. The maleimide insertion step is found to be the rate-determining step. Based on the nearly same energetic span of the two pathways to generate the enantio products, the computational results are consistent with the experimental observation that the terminal [3 + 2] annulation products are racemic when using an achiral ligand. These calculation results disclose the detailed reaction mechanism and shed light on some experimental ambiguities.

Abstract
A divergent transformation of 2-amino-1,4-quinones for the synthesis of pyrroquinone derivatives and 2-halo-3-amino-1,4-quinones was disclosed. The mechanistic study showed that both the tandem cyclization and halogenation involved a Cu(I)-catalyzed oxidative radical process. This protocol not only constructed a series of novel pyrroquinone derivatives with high atom economy but also provided a new method of halogenation via directed C(sp2)-H functionalization with CuX (X = I, Br, Cl) serving as the X (X = I, Br, Cl) source.

Abstract
A practical and straightforward protocol to access site-selective C-3 phosphorylated benzofulvenes by means of cross-dehydrogenative coupling of two nucleophilic moieties, employing silver as a promoter, is described here. Remarkably, this protocol provides a broad, structurally diverse phosphorylated benzofulvene. Initial mechanistic studies shed light on its radical coupling nature, and late-stage transformations offer highly diversified benzofulvenes core.

Abstract
A four-component synthesis of tetrasubstituted pyrroles was developed under metal-free conditions. The pyrrole ring was formed in one pot through [2 + 1 + 1 + 1] condensation using ammonium salt as the nitrogen source. In this strategy, 1,4-naphthoquinones and maleimides were used as the versatile C2 fragments to provide substituted benzo[f]isoindole-4,9-diones and pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,3-diones, respectively. This work is highlighted by using ammonium salt as the nitrogen source, readily available starting materials and multibond formation (two C-C and two C-N bonds) in a single operation.

Abstract
Photocatalytic dehydrogenative [2 + 2] cycloadditions between amines and alkenes were developed that allow for the stereoselective and high-yielding synthesis of functionalized azetidines. The oxidative formal Aza Paternò-Büchi reactions are induced by photoredox-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of dihydroquinoxalinones 1 as the amines, and in the presence of structurally diverse alkenes 3 intermolecular [2 + 2] cyclization to dihydro-1H-azeto[1,2-a]quinoxalin-3(4H)-ones 4 occurs. The utility of the method is illustrated by the selective conversion of amino acid derived dihydroquinoxalinones 1, including oxidation-prone lysine and tryptophan derivatives.
