Abstract
Herein, we report a formal synthesis of (±)-arborisidine via the creation of Jiao's intermediate with the critical caged structure. Starting from tryptamine, a Pictet-Spengler cyclization forged the piperidine ring, a Pd-catalyzed indole allylation and ring-closing metathesis protocol afforded a bridged aza-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane moiety, and an intramolecular N-alkylation closed the final pyrrolidine ring. This study provides a new approach to the unique caged framework of arborisidine and relevant alkaloids.

Abstract
Herein, we describe an efficient transition-metal-free regioselective C3alkylation of indoles for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes and 3-styryl indoles. Nitrobenzene is employed as the oxidant to oxidize the alcohols in the presence of a strong base and the reaction avoids the use of transition metals such as Ru and Mn. The protocol provides a favorable route to access biologically active compounds such as arundine, vibrindole A, and turbomycin B.

Abstract
The synergistic chiral Lewis acid/achiral Pd catalyst system was successfully applied in the enantioselective benzylation of various imine esters, giving a range of α-benzyl-substituted α-amino acid derivatives in satisfactory yield with excellent enantioselectivity. It is worth noting that this strategy exhibits good tolerance for bicyclic and monocyclic benzylic electrophiles. Furthermore, the utility of this synthetic protocol was demonstrated by the expedient preparation of enantioenriched antihypertensive drug α-methyl-l-dopa.

Abstract
The syntheses of polycyclic thienoindolines bearing a dihydrothiophene or tetrahydrothiophene subunit have not been reported, despite the fact that such compounds may have interesting medicinal properties. Herein, we report a protocol for accessing polycyclic dihydrothiophenes by means of formal [2+2+1] intramolecular dearomatizing cyclization of alkynyl indoles with K2S and S8 as the sources of sulfide. In addition, tetrahydrothienoindolines were stereoselectively synthesized via a one-pot, two-step protocol involving AgNO3-catalyzed alkenyl dearomatization followed by two nucleophilic addition reactions involving K2S.

Abstract
The synthesis of new Schrock–Osborn Rh(i) pre-catalysts with ortho-substituted DPEphos ligands, [Rh(DPEphos-R)(NBD)][BArF4] [R = Me, OMe, iPr; ArF = 3,5-(CF3)2C6H3], is described. Along with the previously reported R = H variant, variable temperature 1H NMR spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies show that these all have axial (C–H)⋯Rh anagostic interactions relative to the d8 pseudo square planar metal centres, that also result in corresponding downfield chemical shifts. Analysis by NBO, QTAIM and NCI methods shows these to be only very weak C–H⋯Rh bonding interactions, the magnitudes of which do not correlate with the observed chemical shifts. Instead, as informed by Scherer's approach, it is the topological positioning of the C–H bond with regard to the metal centre that is important. For [Rh(DPEphos–iPr)(NBD)][BArF4] addition of H2 results in a Rh(iii) iPr–C–H activated product, [Rh(κ3,σ-P,O,P-DPEphos-iPr′)(H)][BArF4]. This undergoes H/D exchange with D2 at the iPr groups, reacts with CO or NBD to return Rh(i) products, and reaction with H3B·NMe3/tert-butylethene results in a dehydrogenative borylation to form a complex that shows both a non-classical B–H⋯Rh 3c-2e agostic bond and a C–H⋯Rh anagostic interaction at the same metal centre. Rh(i) complexes of ortho-substituted DPEphos-R (R = H, Me, OMe, iPr) ligands show anagostic interactions; for R =iPr C–H activation/dehydrogenative borylation forms a product exhibiting both B–H/Rh 3c-2e agostic and C–H/Rh anagostic motifs.![]()

Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed redox-neutral allylic alkylation of indoles with cyclopropyl acetylenes has been disclosed. Various 1,3-diene indolenine framework bearing a quaternary stereocenter at the C3 position were synthesized straightforwardly in good to excellent yields with high regio- and stereoselectivities. The reaction could be further expanded to the dearomatization of naphthols to synthesize functionalized cyclohexadienones with 1,3-diene motifs. The reaction exhibited high atom economy and good functional group tolerance.

Abstract
The regioselective arylation of inert C3-H bonds in indoles reacting with arylboronates via effective copper-mediated catalysis with the aid of a facile and removable 2-pyridinylisopropyl (PIP) group without ligand participation is reported. This newly established method features high compatibility with diverse functional groups between coupling partners, including both indole substrates and arylboron reagents, consequentially leading to operational simplicity and providing access to generate the desired arylated products in good to excellent yields of up to 97%. Synthetically, the PIP-derived amide moiety could subsequently be readily removed under mild reaction conditions to produce useful indole carboxylic acids for further transformation.

Abstract
We have accomplished the ruthenium-catalyzed benzylic substitution of benzyl esters with a stabilized carbon nucleophile. A [Cp*RuCl2]2/picolinic acid catalyst system promoted the reaction of 2-naphthylmethyl-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoates with a series of stabilized carbon nucleophiles such as malonates, β-ketoesters, and diketones to give the corresponding benzylic alkylation products in moderate to high yields. We proposed a plausible reaction mechanism that could involve a (π-benzyl)ruthenium intermediate.

These reactions provide rapid access to complex indolenines which are present in a variety of complex natural products and medicinally relevant small molecule structures. This method provides an alternative to the use of transition metal catalysis. The indolenines are readily transformed into spiroindoline systems which are privileged scaffolds in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
Substituted indole scaffolds are often utilized in medicinal chemistry as they regularly possess significant pharmacological activity. Therefore the development of simple, inexpensive and efficient methods for alkylating the indole heterocycle continues to be an active research area. Reported are reactions of trichloroacetimidate electrophiles and indoles to address the challenges of accessing alkyl decorated indole structures. These alkylations perform best when either the indole or the imidate is functionalized with electron withdrawing groups to avoid polyalkylation.

Abstract
The Pd-catalyzed alkene carboheteroarylation of aryl and alkenyl triflate electrophiles bearing pendant alkenes with heteroaromatic nucleophiles affords substituted carbocycles with 3-indolyl or 3-pyrrolyl groups. The products are obtained in moderate to good yields, and the use of alkenyl triflate substrates produces products with high diastereoselectivities. The transformation is believed to proceed via a Friedel-Crafts-like reaction between the heteroaromatic nucleophile and an intermediate electrophilic palladium complex.

Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling of enol carbonates with diarylmethyl electrophiles that are derived from secondary benzylic alcohols has been developed. This method allows the generation of a variety of β-diaryl ketones through an efficient and highly stereospecific coupling. In addition, detailed mechanistic insight into the coupling suggests that the reaction is a rare example of an intramolecular decarboxylative coupling that proceeds without crossover between reactants.

Abstract
Reported is a highly chemoselective intermolecular annulation of indole-based biaryls with bromoalkyl alkynes by using palladium/norbornene (Pd/NBE) cooperative catalysis. This reaction is realized through a sequence of Catellani-type C-H alkylation, alkyne insertion, and indole dearomatization, by forming two C(sp2 )-C(sp3 ) and one C(sp2 )-C(sp2 ) bonds in a single chemical operation, thus providing a diverse range of pentacyclic molecules, containing a spiroindolenine fragment, in good yields with excellent functional-group tolerance. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that C-H bond cleavage is likely involved in the rate-determining step, and the indole dearomatization might take place through an olefin coordination/insertion and β-hydride elimination Heck-type pathway.

Abstract
Trichloroacetimidates function as effective electrophiles for the selective C3-alkylation of 2,3-disubstituted indoles to provide 3,3'-disubstituted indolenines. These indolenines are common synthetic intermediates that are often utilized in the synthesis of complex molecules. Effective reaction conditions utilizing Lewis acid catalysts have been determined, and the scope of the reaction with respect to indole and imidate reaction partner has been investigated. This chemistry provides an alternative to base promoted and transition metal catalyzed methods that are more commonly utilized to access similar indolenines.
