Herein we report a Ni-catalyzed reductive transamidation of conveniently available N-acyl benzotriazoles with alkyl, alkenyl, and aryl nitro compounds, which afforded various amides with good yields and a broad substrate scope. The same catalytic reaction conditions were also applicable for N-sulfonyl benzotriazoles, which could undergo smooth reductive coupling with nitroarenes and nitroalkanes to afford the corresponding sulfonamides.

3-Nitroindoles are synthetically versatile intermediates but current methods for the preparation hinder their widespread application. Herein, we report that nitroenamines undergo electrochemical cyclisation to 3-nitroindoles in the presence of potassium iodide. Detailed control experiments and cyclic voltammogram studies infer the reaction proceedsviaa sequential paired electrolysis process, beginning with anodic oxidation of iodide (I?) to the iodine radical (I˙), which facilitates cyclisation of the nitroenamine to give a 3-nitroindolinyl radical. Cathodic reduction and protonation generates a 3-nitroindoline that upon oxidation forms the 3-nitroindole.

Unprecedented in literature, the conversion of aryl alkenes into β-nitrostyrenes (2) or benzonitriles (3) with sodium nitrite can be governed by an appropriate choice of ionic liquid (IL) medium. A general trend was found for the selectivity of these processes, which depends on the nature of IL, with imidazolium-based ILs, such as [Bmim]Cl, that favor the C–H nitration leading to β-nitrostyrenes, while tetraalkylammonium-based ILs, such as TBAA, privilege the C=C bond cleavage affording benzonitriles. Besides a substrate scope, mechanistic hypotheses were provided on the origin of the different selectivity in the two kinds of ILs, based on their own tunable properties such as polarity, viscosity, and solvent cage effects.
