A novel and facile approach to synthesis of 1-substituted cyclopropylamines via phosphine-catalyzed formal tertiary Csp3-H amination of cyclopropanes was described. The indoles, pyrroles, imidazoles, uracils, 2-pyridone, pyrimidin-4(3H)-one, and phthalimide had been proven as good aminating partners. The present protocol features transition-metal-free, excellent regioselectivity, high-atom-economy, and mild reaction conditions and a broad range of substrates. The practicability of this protocol can also be demonstrated with late-stage modification of bioactive molecules, scaled up reaction, and divergent derivatization. Notably, the method has been used in the formal synthesis of the hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) inhibitor. The mechanistic aspects were elucidated by both experimental and computational studies.

A stereodivergent synthesis of tetrahydrofuroindoles through palladium-catalyzed asymmetric dearomative formal [3+2] cycloaddition of nitroindoles with epoxybutenes was developed. The polarity of the solvent was found to play a key role in the diastereoselectivity. In toluene, good to excellent yields (70–99 %), diastereoselectivity (87/13->95/5 d.r.), and enantioselectivity (85/15–94/6 e.r.) were obtained, regardless of the properties of the substituents on nitroindoles. In acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuroindoles of a different diastereoisomer were produced with good to excellent yields (75–98 %) and stereoselectivity (78/22–93/7 d.r., 93/7–99/1 e.r.). Mechanistic studies were conducted to illustrate the origin of the diastereodivergency. The kinetic experiments indicate that the rate-determining step of this reaction is different in different solvents. ESI-MS experiments also support the existence of key palladium complex intermediates and the catalytic cycle of the reaction.
Rh2(II)-catalyzed nitro-group migration reactions: Selective synthesis of 3-nitroindoles from β-nitro styryl azides

Rhodium carboxylate complexes (1 mol %) catalyze the migration of electron-withdrawing groups to selectively produce 3-substituted indoles from β-substituted styryl azides. The relative order of migratorial aptitude for this transformation is ester ? amide H sulfonyl benzoyl ? nitro.
