A concise total synthesis of (±)-minfiensine using all conventional methods and starting from commercial materials has been completed. The synthesis features a Fischer indole synthesis, a Heck alkylation of an intermediate ketone enolate, conversion of a ketone carbonyl into an epoxide, and transformation of the latter into an allylic alcohol.

Multifunctionalized indole derivatives were prepared by reducing azoarenes in the presence of ketones and bis(neopentylglycolato)diboron (B2nep2) with a catalytic amount of 4,4′-bipyridyl under neutral reaction conditions, where 4,4′-bipyridyl acted as an organocatalyst to activate the B-B bond of B2nep2 and form N,N′-diboryl-1,2-diarylhydrazines as key intermediates. Further reaction of N,N′-diboryl-1,2-diarylhydrazines with ketones afforded N-vinyl-1,2-diarylhydrazines, which rearranged to the corresponding indoles via the Fischer indole mechanism. This organocatalytic system was applied to diverse alkyl cyclic ketones, dialkyl, and alkyl/aryl ketones, including heteroatoms. Methyl alkyl ketones gave the corresponding 2-methyl-3-substituted indoles in a regioselective manner. This protocol allowed us to expand the preparation of indoles having high compatibility with not only electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups but also N- and O-protecting functional groups.

An unprecedented 1,4-cycloaddition (vs 3,6-cycloaddition) of 1,2,4,5-tetrazines is described with preformed or in situ generated aryl-conjugated enamines promoted by the solvent hydrogen bonding of hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) that is conducted under mild reaction conditions (0.1 M HFIP, 25 °C, 12 h). The reaction constitutes a formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition across the two nitrogen atoms (N1/N4) of the 1,2,4,5-tetrazine followed by a formal retro [4 + 2] cycloaddition loss of a nitrile and aromatization to generate a 1,2,4-triazine derivative. The factors that impact the remarkable change in the reaction mode, optimization of reaction parameters, the scope and simplification of its implementation through in situ enamine generation from aldehydes and ketones, the reaction scope for 3,6-bis(thiomethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine, a survey of participating 1,2,4,5-tetrazines, and key mechanistic insights into this reaction are detailed. Given its simplicity and breath, the study establishes a novel method for the simple and efficient one-step synthesis of 1,2,4-triazines under mild conditions from readily accessible starting materials. Whereas alternative protic solvents (e.g., MeOH vs HFIP) provide products of the conventional 3,6-cycoladdition, the enhanced hydrogen bonding capability of HFIP uniquely results in promotion of the unprecedented formal 1,4-cycloaddition. As such, the studies represent an example of not just an enhancement in the rate or efficiency of a heterocyclic azadiene cycloaddition by hydrogen bonding catalysis but also the first to alter the mode (N1/N4 vs C3/C6) of cycloaddition.
