Abstract
Herein we demonstrate a novel organocatalytic method to access multifunctionalized naphthalenes via an NHC-catalyzed reaction of ynones and o-formyl-tethered Michael acceptors. The presented method proceeds through an intermolecular Stetter reaction-cyclization-aromatization cascade and represents a rare example of organocatalytic benzannulation for the synthesis of substituted arenes by using ynone as a two-carbon synthon. The current method has broad substrate scope; postsynthetic transformations and gram-scale syntheses highlight the practicality of the displayed methodology.

Abstract
1,3,5-tri-substituted benzene rings emerged with unique properties has widespread applications in materials, boosting the rapid development of their synthesis. Despite the significance, the direct construction of hetero-1,3,5-trisubstituted benzene core was far less-developed. Herein, we realized a DBU-mediated isomerization/6-π electro-cyclization/oxidative aromatization cascade of sulfonyl-substituted allenyl ketones under an air atmosphere (DBU=1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene). This versatile protocol featured metal-free conditions, easy operation, and broad functional group tolerance provides a new avenue for the construction of hetero-1,3,5-tri-substituted benzene.

Abstract
N-Heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed formal [4+2] benzannulation of enals with suitably substituted pyrimidine-2,4-diones allowing the mild and facile synthesis of functionalized quinazoline-2,4-diones is presented. This oxidative transformation proceeds via the simultaneous generation of dienolates and α,β-unsaturated acylazoliums and follows a vinylogous Michael/aldol/β-lactonization/decarboxylation/oxidation sequence to afford quinazoline-2,4-diones, including axially chiral ones with suitable substitutions, in an operationally simple procedure. In addition, substituted coumarins as dienolate precursors afforded benzochromen-6-one derivatives.

Abstract
AbstractOwing to the importance of arene moieties in organic chemistry, methods for arene construction attract great attention. Besides the traditional substitution strategy from pre-existing arenes, the straightforward formation of arene cores can also provide significant shortcuts towards a wide array of target molecules with different substitution patterns. Among direct arene formation reactions, applying environmentally benign organocatalysis to access arene moieties continues to attract increasing attention. This short review provides a brief summary of recent progress on organocatalyzed de novo (hetero)arene formation and applications in enantioselective synthesis.1 Introduction2 Arene Formation with Non-Covalent Organocatalysts2.1 Arene Formation with Acid Organocatalysts2.2 Arene Formation with Base Organocatalysts2.3 Arene Formation with Hydrogen-Bonding Organocatalysts3 Arene Formation with Covalent Organocatalysts3.1 Arene Formation with Lewis Base Organocatalysts3.1.1 Arene Formation with Secondary Amine Organocatalysts3.1.2 Arene Formation with Tertiary Amine, Tertiary Phosphine and Sulfide Organocatalysts3.1.3 Arene Formation with N-Heterocyclic Carbene Organocatalysts3.2 Arene Formation with Lewis Acid Organocatalysts4 Conclusion
