The palladium-catalyzed reaction of α-haloketones with isocyanides afforded α-oxo-ketenimines through β-hydride elimination of the β-oxo-imidoyl palladium intermediates. Reaction of these relatively stable α-oxo-ketenimines with nucleophiles such as hydrazines, hydrazoic acid, amines, and Grignard reagent afforded pyrazoles, tetrazole, β-keto amidines, and enaminone, respectively, with high chemoselectivity. Whereas amines attack exclusively on the ketenimine functions, the formal [3+2] cycloaddition between N-monosubstituted hydrazines and α-oxo-ketenimines was initiated by nucleophilic addition to the carbonyl group.

The novel photoisomerization of 1-acylindoles accompanied by a conversion of indole to indolenine afforded 3-acylindolenines, a so far unknown reactive species, as a major product.This reaction was thorougly investigated and applied with success to the total synthesis of Strychnos, Aspidosperma, Schizozygane and Eburnamine alkaloids through a versatile intermediate 9-membered ring system,synthesized in a one pot reaction by photolysis and the simultaneous ring enlargement.
