Abstract
A catalyst system consisting of a chiral phosphoramidite ligand and Pd2(dba)3·CHCl3 causes the decarboxylation of 5-vinyloxazolidine-2,4-diones to generate amide-containing aza-π-allylpalladium 1,3-dipole intermediates, which are capable of triggering the dearomatization of 3-nitroindoles for diastereo- and enantioselective [3+2] cycloaddition, leading to the formation of a series of highly functionalized pyrroloindolines containing three contiguous stereogenic centers with excellent results (up to 99% yield, 88:12 dr, and 96% ee).

Abstract
An efficient dearomative cyclization of 2-nitrobenzofurans via a thiol-triggered tandem Michael addition/intramolecular Henry reaction has been developed. A range of thiochromeno[3,2-b]benzofuran-11-ols and tetrahydrothieno[3,2-b]benzofuran-3-ols could be obtained in up to 99% yield and up to >20:1 dr. The valuable thiochromone fused benzofurans could be prepared with the reaction of 2-nitrobenzofurans and 2-mercaptobenzaldehyde via the tandem dearomative Michael addition/intramolecular Henry reaction/rearomatization/oxidative dehydrogenation process in a one-pot two-step operation. A mechanism for the reaction was tentatively proposed.

Abstract
An efficient dearomative (3 + 2) cycloaddition of para-quinamines and 2-nitrobenzofurans has been developed. This reaction proceeds smoothly under mild conditions and affords a series of benzofuro[3,2-b]indol-3-one derivatives in good to excellent yields (up to 98%) with perfect diastereoselectivities (all cases > 20:1 dr). The scale-up synthesis and versatile derivatizations demonstrate the potential synthetic application of the protocol. A plausible reaction mechanism is also proposed to account for the observed reaction process. This work represents the first instance of the N-triggered dearomative (3 + 2) cycloaddition of 2-nitrobenzofurans.

Abstract
The first direct catalytic asymmetric Mannich reaction of 2-alkylazaarenes and ketimines was realized with a chiral Cu-bis(oxazoline) complex as the catalyst. The asymmetric addition of 2-alkylpyridines to isatin-derived ketimines proceeded smoothly to afford α,β-functionalized 2-substituted pyridines bearing 3-amino-3,3-disubstituted oxindole motifs with excellent results (≤99% yield, 99:1 dr, and 98% ee). The catalytic system was also extended to 2-alkylbenzothiazoles as nucleophiles for the asymmetric Mannich reaction of ketimines.

Abstract
This study demonstrates a highly efficient regiodivergent ligand-controlled palladium-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction of vinyloxazolidine-2,4-diones with 1,3,5-triazinanes. In the presence of a diphosphine ligand, the reaction proceeds via a (5+2) cycloaddition pathway to afford 1,3-diazepin-4-ones in excellent yields, while using a monophosphine ligand, the reaction proceeds smoothly via a (3+2) cycloaddition pathway to give imidazolidin-4-ones in good yields.

Abstract
Herein, we report an unprecedented implementation of 3-halooxindoles as C-C-O three-atom components for (3+3) cycloaddition with pyridinium 1,4-zwitterionic thiolates, affording structurally diverse indolenine-fused 2H-1,4-oxathiines in moderate to high yields. A combined experimental and computational mechanistic study suggests that the reaction proceeds through addition of a S conjugate to the o-azaxylylene intermediate, followed by O-Michael addition and a sequential retro-Michael addition/pyridine extrusion pathway.

Abstract
An organocatalytic asymmetric [3 + 2] cycloaddition of β-trifluoromethyl enones with 3-(N-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) benzothiophene ketimines and 2-(N-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) benzothiophene ketimines was described for the first time. A wide spectrum of vicinally bis(trifluoromethyl)-substituted spiro pyrrolidine-benzothiophenones were obtained with excellent stereocontrol (all cases >20:1 dr and up to 99% ee). The highlight of this work is the extremely high efficiency in the construction of spirocyclic benzothiophenone derivatives possessing a vicinally bis(trifluoromethyl)-substituted pyrrolidine moiety with four contiguous stereocenters.

Abstract
An unprecedented N-alkylation of 3-nitroindoles with para-quinone methides was developed for the first time. Using potassium carbonate as the base, a wide range of structurally diverse N-diarylmethylindole derivatives were obtained with moderated to good yields via the protection group migration/aza-1,6-Michael addition sequences. The reaction process was also demonstrated by control experiments. Different from the previous advances where 3-nitrodoles served as electrophiles trapping by various nucleophiles, the reaction herein is featured that 3-nitrodoles is defined with latent N-centered nucleophiles to react with ortho-hydrophenyl p-QMs for construction of various N-diarylmethylindoles.

Abstract
In this research, a metal-free diastereoselective formal 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of N-2,2,2-trifluoroethylisatin ketimines and cyclopentene-1,3-diones which can efficiently lead to the desymmetrization of cyclopentene-1,3-diones is developed. With the developed protocol, a series of tetracyclic spirooxindoles containing pyrrolidine and cyclopentane subunits can be smoothly obtained with good results (up to 99% yield and 91:9 dr). Furthermore, the methodology can be extended to trifluoromethyl-substituted iminomalonate, and the corresponding formal [3+2] cycloaddition reaction affords bicyclic heterocycles containing fused pyrrolidine and cyclopentane moieties in moderate yields with >20:1 dr. The synthetic potential of the methodology is demonstrated by the scale-up experiment and by versatile transformations of the products.

Abstract
[3 + 2] Cycloaddition reactions of heteroaromatic N-ylides with electron-deficient olefins have been developed. The heteroaromatic N-ylides, in situ generated from N-phenacylbenzothiazolium bromides, can smoothly react with maleimides under very mild conditions, affording fused polycyclic octahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrroles in good-to-excellent isolated yields. This reaction concept could also be extended to 3-trifluoroethylidene oxindoles and benzylidenemalononitriles as electron-deficient olefins for accessing highly functionalized polyheterocyclic compounds. A gram-scale experiment was also carried out to verify the practicability of the methodology.

Abstract
Copper-catalyzed decarboxylative reactions of propargylic cyclic carbonates/carbamates enable the efficient construction of widely available skeletons such as allenes, ethynyl-containing heterocycles, and tetrasubstituted stereogenic carbon centers. As an emerging field, these strategies have gained great attention and shown significant progress due to the presence of multiple electrophilic and nucleophilic reaction sites of propargylic cyclic carbonates/carbamates, as well as the distinct advantages of copper catalysis such as higher selectivity, low cost, and mild reaction conditions. In this review, the achievements in copper-catalyzed decarboxylative reactions of propargylic cyclic carbonates/carbamates are addressed. Mechanistic insights, synthetic applications, and their limitations are discussed. The challenges and opportunities of this field are also outlined.

Abstract
A highly efficient methodology for bioactive ingredient 3S,3′S-astaxanthin (3S,3′S-AST) preparation from genetically modified yeast (Kluyveromyces marxianus) with a combination of enzyme-assisted extraction and salt-assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) was achieved. The highest yield of 3S,3′S-AST indicated that FoodPro® CBL for yeast cell walls hydrolysis could significantly enhance extraction and obtain, with the help of SALLE procedure, quantified 3S,3′S-AST over 99% in purity through cation chelation. In the oxygen radical antioxidant capacity (ORAC) assay, the antioxidant capacity of high-purity 3S,3′S-AST products were 18.3 times higher than that of the original raw material extract. This new combination preparation may replace previous methods and has the potential to be scaled up in the manufacture of high-purity 3S,3′S-AST from low-value bioresources of raw materials to high-value products in the food and/or drug industries with lower cost and simple equipment.

Abstract
Heteroarene 1, n-zwitterions are powerful and versatile building blocks in the construction of heterocycles and have received increasing attention in recent years. In particular, pyridinium and quinolinium 1,4-zwitterions have been widely studied and used in a variety of cyclization reactions due to their air stability, ease of use, and high efficiency. Sulfur- and nitrogen-based pyridinium and quinolinium 1,4-zwitterions, types of emerging heteroatom-containing synthons, have attracted much attention from chemists. These 1,4-zwitterions, which contain multiple reaction sites, have been successfully used in the synthesis of three- to eight-membered cyclic compounds over the last decade. In this review, we present the exciting progress made in the field of cyclization reactions of sulfur- and nitrogen-based pyridinium and quinolinium 1,4-zwitterions. Moreover, the mechanistic insights, the transition states, some synthetic applications, and the challenges and opportunities are also discussed. We hope to provide an overview for synthetic chemists who are interested in the heterocycle synthesis from cyclization reaction with pyridinium and quinolinium 1,4-zwitterions pyridinium and quinolinium 1,4-zwitterions.

Abstract
Catalytic asymmetric dearomative [3+2] cycloaddition of α-imino γ-lactones with either 3-nitroindoles or 2-nitrobenzofurans by using a chiral copper complex as the catalyst was developed. A wide range of structurally diverse polyheterocyclic compounds containing spirocyclic-fused butyrolactone-pyrrolidine-indoline and butyrolactone-pyrrolidine-dihydrobenzofuran skeletons could be smoothly obtained with excellent results (>99:1 dr and 98% ee). The potential synthetic applications of this methodology were also demonstrated by the scale-up experiment and by the diverse transformations of one product. This method is characterized by high asymmetric induction, wide functional group tolerance and scalability, and attractive product diversification.

Abstract
A copper-catalyzed diastereo- and enantioselective decarboxylative [3 + 2] cyclization reaction of alkyne-substituted cyclic carbamates with azlactones has been established. A range of optically pure γ-butyrolactams bearing two vicinal tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters were obtained in high yields with good to excellent stereoselectivities (up to 99% yield, 99:1 dr, and 99% ee). This is the first example of asymmetric synthesis γ-butyrolactams containing sterically congested vicinal tetrasubstituted stereocenters via a decarboxylative cyclization pathway.

Abstract
A formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition of 3-nitroindoles with ortho-aminophenyl p-quinone methides via a dearomatization process was developed. This method provides a facile approach for preparing tetrahydro-5H-indolo[2,3-b]quinolones with good results. With the bifunctional Cinchona alkaloid-squaramide as the catalyst, the asymmetric version of the reaction successfully afforded the corresponding chiral products with moderate to good enantioselectivities. This work represents the first dearomative cycloaddition of electron-deficient heteroarenes triggered by aza-Michael addition from p-QMs.

Abstract
Enantioselective construction of vicinal tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters is a formidable challenge in organic synthesis. A copper-catalyzed asymmetric decarboxylative propargylic substitution with 3-amino oxindoles as trisubstituted carbon nucleophiles and propargylic cyclic carbonates as tertiary carbon electrophiles was developed. A range of 3-amino-3,3'-disubstituted oxindoles bearing vicinal quaternary-tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters were obtained in high yields and good to excellent stereoselectivities (up to 98% yield, >20:1 dr, and 98.5:1.5 er).

Abstract
A copper-catalyzed umpolung of N-2,2,2-trifluoroethylisatin ketimines for the enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with benzo[b]thiophene sulfones was developed. Using a catalyst system consisting of an (S,Sp)-tBu-Phosferrox ligand, Cu(OTf)2, and Cs2CO3, a range of pentacyclic spirooxindoles containing pyrrolidine and benzo[b]sulfolane subunits were obtained in high efficiency with excellent regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivites under mild conditions. The practicality and versatility of the reaction were also demonstrated.

Abstract
Here, we demonstrate the first example of 3-isothiocyanato thiobutyrolactone serving as a useful building block in the Michael/cyclization reaction with alkylidene pyrazolones for the enantioselective construction of optically active structural bispiro[pyrazolone-thiobutyrolactone] skeletons containing three contiguous stereocenters with two spiroquaternary stereocenters. These products were smoothly afforded in up to 90% yield, >20 : 1 dr and >99% ee with chiral squaramide as the catalyst under mild conditions. Notably, this is also the first example of the merger of a spirocyclic pyrazolone scaffold with a spirocyclic thiobutyrolactone scaffold, potentially useful in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
With a Cu(OTf)2/chiral ferrocenyl P,N-ligand complex as a catalyst, the enantioselective desymmetrization of N-arylmaleimides was successfully realized by taking advantage of the asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of N-2,2,2-trifluoroethylisatin ketimines. A series of structurally diverse F3C-containing octahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrroles, bearing four contiguous carbon stereocenters and one stereogenic chiral C-N axial bond, were obtained with excellent results (≤99% yield, >20:1 dr, and 99% ee).

Abstract
A readily available chiral cyclohexanediamine-derived bifunctional tertiary amine-squaramide catalyst is more effective for the asymmetric dearomative 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 2-nitrobenzofurans and N-2,2,2-trifluoroethylisatin ketimines. A range of structurally diverse spiro-fused polyheterocyclic compounds containing oxindole, pyrrolidine, and hydrobenzofuran motifs were smoothly obtained in excellent results (up to 99% yield, >20:1 dr in all cases and up to 99% ee). This method features high efficiency, mild reaction conditions, exquisite asymmetric induction, wide functional group tolerance, great potential for scale-up synthesis, and attractive product diversification.

Abstract
An inexpensive copper-catalyzed sequential reaction process, proceeding via a nucleophilic attack of amine to Cu-carbene generated in situ from heterocyclic N-tosylhydrazone precursors followed by a 1,2-H shift/oxidative cyclization cascade of N-ylides, has been described, smoothly generating the corresponding structurally various spiro-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline derivatives. Furthermore, the significance of this protocol can be also highlighted by its diverse conversions of the synthetic compounds to the potentially bioactive molecules such as the 2-substituted pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalins.

A highly regioselective inverse electron-demand aza-Diels-Alder reaction of α,β-unsaturated thioesters with 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes generated in situ from α-halogeno hydrazones was developed. With α,β-unsaturated thioesters as C═S dienophiles, the developed protocol enables the formation of diverse 3,6-dihydro-2H-1,3,4-thiadiazine derivatives in excellent yields. In the presence of lithium aluminum hydride, 3,6-dihydro-2H-1,3,4-thiadiazine derivatives could be further transformed into 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazines in good yields.

Abstract
An unprecedented (3+1) cyclization of α-nitrosostyrenes, generated in situ from α-bromooximes, and N-tosyloxycarbamates was developed, which enables the synthesis of a range of structurally unique and hitherto unexplored 2,3-dihydrodiazete N-oxides in moderate to high yields. The products possess a highly strained four-membered ring structure containing two nitrogen atoms. The synthetic applicability of the products was also demonstrated by many important conversions to diverse nitrogen-containing compounds.

Abstract
An enantioselective dearomative 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 2-nitrobenzothiophenes and isatin-derived azomethine ylides with a bifunctional hydrogen-bonding thiourea catalyst was established, giving polyheterocyclic compounds in excellent results (up to 99% yield, >20:1 dr for all cases and up to 99% ee). The enantioselectivity could be reversed by the bifunctional hydrogen-bonding squaramide catalyst containing the same chiral source as in the thiourea catalyst. DFT calculations revealed the origin of the observed stereochemistry and the reversal of enantioselectivity.

Abstract
An efficient inverse electron-demand aza-Diels-Alder reaction of cyclic enamides and 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes, which could be readily formed in situ from α-halogeno hydrazones and a base, has been successfully developed. With the developed approach, a wide range of fused polycyclic tetrahydropyridazines were smoothly obtained in up to 99% yield under benign reaction conditions. This reaction concept was also extended to acyclic enamide substrates for accessing 1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridazines. A gram-scale experiment and further derivatizations of the polycyclic tetrahydropyridazine products were also conducted to verify the practicability of the methodology.

A highly diastereo- and enantioselective cyclopropanation reaction of 3-acylcoumarins with 3-halooxindoles catalyzed by an organocatalyst through a [2 + 1] Michael/intramolecular cyclization process was developed. This scenario provides a facile strategy to access spirooxindole-cyclopropa[c]coumarin compounds bearing three continuous stereocenters, including two vicinal quaternary all-carbon stereocenters with high to excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities. The HRMS study revealed the vital importance of the ammonium ylide intermediate in the catalytic process.

Abstract
An efficient decarboxylative [3 + 2] annulation reaction of ethynylethylene carbonates and azlactones has been developed with a copper salt as catalyst. This practical methodology gives access to a diverse library of γ-butyrolactones bearing α,β-two vicinal quaternary carbon centers in good to high yields with good levels of diastereoselectivities (up to 98% yield, >95:5 dr). Preliminary trials on enantioselective variant with a chiral PyBox ligand provided chiral products in up to 71% ee. This synthetic method features mild reaction conditions, broad functional group tolerance, large-scale synthesis, and versatile products transformation. A plausible catalytic cycle for the protocol is proposed based on previous related studies and our experimental observations.

Abstract
A bifunctional thiourea-catalyzed asymmetric tandem α-functionalization/1,3-proton shift reaction of benzylidene succinimides with β-trifluoromethyl enones has been developed. A series of F3C-containing chiral Rauhut-Currier type products were obtained in moderate to high yields (up to 98%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee). This represents the first example of benzylidene succinimides undergoing tandem α-functionalization/1,3-proton shift in catalytic enantioselective transformation.

Abstract
The first organocatalytic diastereo- and enantioselective tandem sulfa-Michael/aldol reaction of 2-mercaptoindole-3-carbaldehydes and 2-mercaptobenzaldehydes with benzo[b]thiophene sulfones was developed. With multiple hydrogen-bonding thiourea as a catalyst, a wide range of polycyclic dihydrothiopyran-fused benzosulfolanes were smoothly obtained with excellent results (up to 99% yield, >20 : 1 dr and 99% ee) under mild reaction conditions.
