Abstract
Visible light-induced aza-6π electrocyclization was developed for the synthesis of aza-arenes from nitroarenes with diverse aldehydes. This protocol allows the reduction of nitroarenes by B2nep2 and subsequent 6π-electrocyclization of the in situ formed imine under visible light. An array of 6- and multi-substituted phenanthridines were constructed in moderate to good yields under purple LEDs at room temperature. A wide scope of substrates with diverse functional groups were well tolerated. In addition, the synthetic utility of this methodology was further demonstrated in the late-stage functionalization of celecoxib.

Abstract
Covering: Up to 2024Due to the widespread distribution of protoberberine alkaloids (PBs) and tetrahydroberberine alkaloids (THPBs) in nature, coupled with their myriad unique physiological activities, they have garnered considerable attention from medical practitioners. Over the past few decades, synthetic chemists have devised various total synthesis methods to attain these structures, continually expanding reaction pathways to achieve more efficient synthetic strategies. Simultaneously, the chiral construction of THPBs has become a focal point. In this comprehensive review, we categorically summarized the developmental trajectory of the total synthesis of these alkaloids based on the core closure strategies of protoberberine and tetrahydroberberine.

Abstract
Gaining insight into the dynamics of electrocyclic reactions is very important from both fundamental and application perspectives. In this study, we developed novel diarylethene photoswitches that undergo 6π azaelectrocyclic reaction. We found that they exhibit fast thermally reversible type (T-type) photochromism, in contrast to the fact that common diarylethenes exhibit photochemically reversible type (P-type) photochromism. The quantum chemical calculations revealed that the fast T-type photochromism originates from the unprecedented disrotatory thermal cycloreversion of the closed-ring isomer. Our results provide useful information not only for the dynamics of the 6π azaelectrocyclic reaction but also for the further development of diarylethene photoswitches utilizing the 6π azaelectrocyclic reaction.

Abstract
Six 8-oxoprotoberberines were synthesized collectively in four steps with acceptable yields (14-19%), of which the products 8-oxopalmatine, 8-oxopseudopalmatine, 8-oxoberberine, and 8-oxopseudoberberine come from nature. The synthetic route was featured with the In(OTf)3-catalyzed cyclization and Heck coupling. Moreover, the syntheses of the natural products berberine, canadine, and iambertine were achieved via various reductions from 8-oxoberberine, which provided a concise approach to the syntheses of this kind of alkaloids.

Abstract
Divergent synthesis is extremely important for the highly efficient preparation of structurally diverse target molecules. Herein, we describe a multicomponent cascade reaction, which allows access to highly substituted pyridines and benzenes by combining four individual steps in a one-pot manner from the same set of readily available starting materials. The azepine intermediates were first used as the precursors for 6π-electrocyclization to construct highly substituted pyridines and benzenes in a tunable manner.

Abstract
A modularly convergent and divergent strategy was established for the family synthesis of both protoberberine and protonitidine alkaloids. The robust, scalable, and flexible synthetic route featured a collective preparation of protoberberine and protonitidine alkaloids from a common isoquinoline assembled from pyridyne as the key synthon, which was based on the selective N-C or C-C cyclization via distinct processes. Through the strategy, 20 protoberberine alkaloids, 5 protonitidine alkaloids, and 11 analogues with diverse substituents were comprehensively aquired.
