Trifluoroethanol as a Unique Additive for the Chemoselective Electrooxidation of Enamines to Access Unsymmetrically Substituted NH-Pyrroles
An electrochemical method for the synthesis of unsymmetrically substituted NH-pyrroles is described. The synthetic strategy comprises a challenging heterocoupling between two structurally diverse enamines via sequential chemoselective oxidation, addition,

Electrochemical Oxidative Cyclization: Synthesis of Polysubstituted Pyrrole from Enamines
A conceptually novel method for the preparation of pyrrole is described by electrochemical-oxidation-induced intermolecular annulation via enamines. In a simple undivided cell, based on a sodium acetate-facilitated, polysubstituted pyrrole derivations has been facilely synthesized under external oxidant-free condition. This electrosynthetic approach providing an environmentally benign protocol for C?C bond cross-coupling and oxidative annulation, which features unparalleled broad scope of substrates and practicality.
Construction of isoxazolone-fused phenanthridinesviaRh-catalyzed cascade C-H activation/cyclization of 3-arylisoxazolones with cyclic 2-diazo-1,3-diketones
A Rh(iii)-catalyzed cascade C-H activation/intramolecular cyclization of 3-aryl-5-isoxazolones with cyclic 2-diazo-1,3-diketones was described, leading to the formation of isoxazolo[2,3-f]phenanthridine skeletons. The protocol features the simultaneous one-pot formation of two new C-C/C-N bonds and one heterocycle in moderate-to-good yields with good functional group compatibility. It is amenable to large-scale synthesis and further transformation.
An efficient route for the synthesis of N-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)benzamide derivatives promoted by CBr4 in one pot
A metal-free one-pot method for the synthesis of N-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)benzamide derivatives was proposed mediated by CBr4. The reaction went through ring formation and opening processes with only two protons leaving and the thermodynamically favorable products were selectively formed in moderate to good yields.

Desymmetrization of meso-dicarbonatecyclohexene with β-Hydrazino carboxylic esters via a Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution cascade
The desymmetrization of meso-dicarbonatecyclohexene with β-hydrazino carboxylic esters has been achieved via a RuPHOX/Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution cascade for the construction of chiral hexahydrocinnoline derivatives with high performance. Mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction exploits a pathway different from that of our previous work and that the first nitrogen nucleophilic process is the rate-determining step. The protocol could be conducted on a gram scale without any loss of catalytic behavior, and the corresponding chiral hexahydrocinnolines can undergo diverse transformations.
