Abstract
Bromonitroalkenes are useful molecules in synthetic organic chemistry. They are mainly prepared from nitroalkenes via bromination reactions. In this review, the application of bromonitroalkenes as partners in the reaction with a diversity of mono- and bi-functional molecules, including aldehydes and ketones, active methylene compounds, 1,2-dicarbonyls, enamines, enols, electron-rich arenes, amidines, azomethine ylides, azirines, diazo compounds, and many others, is reviewed. By using these substrates, various biologically active scaffolds, such as heterocycles, carbocycles, spirocycles, polycyclic systems, natural products, and other useful acyclic compounds, were prepared. In addition, due to their dielectrophilic character, electrophilic and nucleophilic character, and ability to participate in cycloaddition reactions, bromonitroalkenes were efficiently applied in asymmetric cascade/domino/tandem reactions catalyzed by chiral catalysts. In this manuscript, around 55 papers are summarized and discussed during the years 2000-2023.

Abstract
The [3 + 2] cycloadditions of stabilized azomethine ylides (AMYs) derived from amino esters are well-established. However, the reactions of semi-stabilized AMYs generated from decarboxylative condensation of α-amino acids with arylaldehydes are much less explored. The [3 + 2] adducts of α-amino acids could be used for a second [3 + 2] cycloaddition as well as for other post-condensation modifications. This article highlights our recent work on the development of α-amino acid-based [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of N-H-type AMYs in multicomponent, one-pot, and stepwise reactions for the synthesis of diverse heterocycles related to some bioactive compounds and natural products.

Abstract
Hydrogen-bond-assisted azomethine ylides, generated from 2-(benzylamino)-2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-inden-2-ylidene)acetonitriles, undergo a formal Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with β-bromo-β-nitrostyrenes to afford a diastereoselective synthesis of highly substituted pyrrolidin-2-ylidene derivatives. When β-nitrostyrenes were used as the alkene component, 2-(4,5-diaryl-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-ylidene)-1H-indene-1,3(2H)-diones were obtained. Efficient conversion of pyrrolidene-2-ylidenes to the corresponding pyrrol-2-ylidenes takes place in refluxing 1-propanol in the presence of excess Et3N. Also, the structure of the pyrrolidene-2-ylidene derivative was determined by X-ray crystallography.

Abstract
The straightforward construction of polysubstituted arenes is essential in both synthetic chemistry and medicinal chemistry. Herein, we reported a DBU promoted Michael addition/cyclization/elimination cascade reaction between vinylogous malononitrile derivatives and chlorinated nitrostyrenes for the synthesis of polysubstituted arenes. The method features mild reaction conditions, wide substrate scope and high yield. Interestingly, preliminary study of the enantioselective version of this cascade was conducted to give chiral biaryl atropisomers with up to 40% ee through center-to-axial chirality transfer strategy.

Abstract
Spirocyclic frameworks have attracted synthetic practitioners due to their unique three-dimensional assembly, improved metabolic stability, solubility, and increased molecular complexity with regard to planar architectures. A recent surge in the number of spirocyclic oxindoles inhibiting enzymes, moderating unique protein-protein interactions, modulating receptors and transporters is testament to their prevalence. Against this background, the construction of spirocyclic frameworks containing an oxindole moiety as a torsional switch via stereoselective methods is in great demand. Herein we present a summary of the past three years in the progress of metal, organic molecule, nanostructured particle mediated, and even uncatalyzed versions of the highly diastereo- and enantioselective pathways leading to oxindole spirocycles.

Abstract
An efficient route for the synthesis of multifunctionalized pyrrolidines based on copper-catalyzed diastereoselective [3 + 2]-cycloaddition of nitroalkenes with azomethine ylides was developed. Novel fluorinated heterocycles - β-fluoro-β-nitropyrrolidines - were accessed via this method. The products can be prepared in good to excellent yields and with high diastereoselectivity. Subsequent transformations of pyrrolidines including oxidative aromatization into fluorinated pyrrolines and medicinally attractive β-fluoro-NH-pyrroles as well as chemoselective reduction reactions were demonstrated. Application of the developed procedures for the non-fluorinated analogues was demonstrated to lead to various β-substituted pyrrole derivatives.
