- NHC-Organocatalyzed CAr?O Bond Cleavage: Mild Access to 2-Hydroxybenzophenones
-
A Truce–Smiles rearrangement of acyl-anion equivalents generated by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis has been achieved. The developed method includes CAr?O, CAr?S, or CAr?N bond cleavage for the formation of a CAr?C bond and enables access to 2-hydroxybenzophenones, an important structural motif that is present in several bioactive natural products. By utilizing this procedure, the alkaloid taxilamine was synthesized in three steps. DFT calculations and control experiments support a classical SNAr mechanism with a catalyst-bound Meisenheimer-type intermediate. The method features mild reaction conditions, excellent functional-group tolerance, and a broad substrate scope, including various classes of (hetero)arenes.

- A highly practical and convenient halogenation of fused heterocyclic N-oxides
-
A novel, simple and practical method for the regioselective halogenation of fused heterocyclic N-oxides has been developed. It employs Vilsmeier reagent, generated in situ by POX3and DMF, as both the activating agent and the nucleophilic halide source. The method is amenable across a broad range of substrates, including quinolines, isoquinolines and the diazine N-oxides, possessing a variety of substitution patterns. Furthermore, all of the reagents associated are cheap and easy to obtain. The potential extension of this method to a one-pot oxidation/halogenation sequence that obviates the need for isolation of the N-oxide intermediates is also presented.

- Discovery of a 4-aryloxy-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine and a 1-aryloxyisoquinoline series of TRPA1 antagonists
-
A series of TRPA1 antagonists is described having a 4-aryloxy-1H-pyrrolo[3, 2-c]pyridine or a 1-aryloxyisoquinoline scaffold. These compounds have high ligand efficiency and favorable physical properties and may thus serve as scaffolds for further optimization.
