Solution-phase parallel synthesis of aryloxyimino amides via a novel multicomponent reaction among aromatic (Z)-chlorooximes, isocyanides, and electron-deficient phenols

Cascade Reaction of Tryptamine-Derived Isocyanides with Nitrile Oxides: Construction of Oxazine Fused-Spiroindoline Derivatives

A one-step cascade reaction of tryptamine-derived isocyanides with in situ generated nitrile oxides for the synthesis of fused spiroindolines was described. The desired products could be efficiently synthesized in moderate to good yields (42-87%). The protocol features mild conditions, wide substrate scope, and high efficiency.

Nitrogen Oxides and Nitric Acid Enable the Sustainable Hydroxylation and Nitrohydroxylation of Benzenes under Visible Light Irradiation

A new type of waste recycling strategy is described in which nitrogen oxides or nitric acid are directly employed in photocatalyzed hydroxylations and nitrohydroxylations of benzenes. Through these transformations, otherwise costly denitrification can be combined with the synthesis of valuable compounds for various applications.
