Abstract
A convenient synthetic protocol for diverse fused chromenes was successfully developed by a three-component reaction of alkyl isocyanides, dialkyl but-2-ynedioates, and various cyclic 1,3-dipolarophiles containing o-hydroxyphenyl group. In the absence of any catalyst, the three-component reaction of alkyl isocyanides, dialkyl but-2-ynedioates, and 3-(o-hydroxyarylidene)indolin-2-ones in tetrahydrofuran at 60 °C resulted in unique functionalized spiro[cyclobuta[c]chromene-1,3'-indolines] in good yields and with high diastereoselectivity. However, the similar three-component reaction with 2-(5-halo-2-hydroxyarylidene)indolin-2-ones afforded unexpected chain products in satisfactory yields. In addition, the three-component reaction of alkyl isocyanides, dialkyl but-2-ynedioates, and 2-(o-hydroxyarylidene)-1,3-indanediones in tetrahydrofuran at 60 °C resulted in complex indeno[2',1':5,6]pyrano[3,4-c]chromene derivatives in high yields and with high diastereoselectivity.

Abstract
Domino Knoevenagel-cyclization reactions of N-arylcinnamylamines were carried out with active methylene reagents, which took place with five competing cyclization mechanisms: intramolecular hetero Diels-Alder reaction, stepwise polar [2 + 2] cycloaddition, styryl or aza-Diels-Alder reactions followed by rearomatization, and [1,5]-hydride shift-6-endo cyclization. In the stepwise aza-Diels-Alder reaction, the N-vinylpyridinium moiety acted as an azadiene, producing a condensed heterocycle with tetrahydroquinolizinium and tetrahydroquiniline subunits. Antiproliferative activity with low micromolar IC50 values was identified for some of the novel scaffolds.

Abstract
This review focuses on the catalyst- and additive-free C-C bond forming reactions reported mostly from the year 2005 to date. C-C bond forming reactions are highly important as large and complex organic molecules can be derived from simpler ones via these reactions. On the other hand, catalyst- and additive-free reactions are economical, environmentally friendly and less sensitive to air/moisture, allow easy separation of products and are operationally simple. Hence, a large number of research articles have been published in this area. Though a few reviews are available on the catalyst-free organic reactions, most of them were published a few years ago. The current review excludes catalysts as well as additives and is specific to only C-C bond formation. Besides many organic name reactions, catalyst/additive-free C-H functionalizations, coupling reactions and UV-visible-light-promoted reactions are also discussed. Undoubtedly, the contents of this review will motivate readers to do more novel work in this area which will accelerate the journey towards a sustainable future.

Abstract
The catalyst-free domino reaction of α,β-unsaturated N-alkyl or N-arylaldimines with two molecules of 2-arylidene-1,3-indanediones in dry acetonitrile resulted in polysubstituted spiro[indene-2,3'-indeno[2',1':5,6]pyrano[2,3-b]pyridines] in moderate to good yields and with high diastereoselectivity. The reaction mechanism included sequential aza/oxa-Diels-Alder reactions via both endo-transition states. On the other hand, the catalyst-free domino reaction of α,β-unsaturated N-arylaldimines with 2,2'-(arylmethylene)bis(1,3-indenediones) afforded the mixed diastereoisomeric dispiro[indene-2,1'-cyclohexane-3',2″-indene] derivatives in satisfactory yields. The reaction mechanism of this formal [3 + 3] cycloaddition was believed to proceed with sequential nucleophilic 1,4-/1,2-additions.
