Azobenzenes are versatile photoswitches that have found widespread use in a variety of fields, ranging from photopharmacology to the material sciences. In addition to regular azobenzenes, the cyclic diazocines have recently emerged. Although diazocines have fascinating conformational and photophysical properties, their use has been limited by their synthetic accessibility. Herein, we present a general, high-yielding protocol that relies on the oxidative cyclization of dianilines. In combination with a modular substrate synthesis, it allows for rapid access to diversely functionalized diazocines on gram scales. Our work systematically explores substituent effects on the photoisomerization and thermal relaxation of diazocines. It will enable their incorporation into a wide variety of functional molecules, unlocking the full potential of these emerging photoswitches. The method can be applied to the synthesis of a new cyclic azobenzene with a nine-membered central ring and distinct properties.

The Rh-catalyzed hydroacylative union of aldehydes and o-alkynyl anilines leads to 2-aminophenyl enones, and onward to substituted quinolines. The mild reaction conditions employed in this chemistry result in a process that displays broad functional group

Novel spiropseudoindoxyls were synthesized in high yields via a fully regioselective Au(III)-catalyzed cycloisomerization of easily obtainable o-nitrophenylpropiolamides, followed by an intramolecular dipolar cycloaddition as key steps. This one-pot cascade reaction resulted in new tetracyclic pseudoindoxyls, which were hydrogenated toward the title compounds as single diastereomers via N-O cleavage. The mechanism of the gold catalyzed cycloisomerization was studied by DFT and suggests a reaction path without the intermediacy of gold carbenoid species in these cases.

Three distinct synthetic routes to the 2-prenyl tryptophan core skeleton of tryprostatins and their total syntheses are described. The strategies include a traditional gramine-mediated coupling reaction, Fuerstner indole synthesis, and our radical-mediated indole synthesis from o-alkenylphenyl isocyanide. The establishment of reliable conditions for the radical-mediated construction of indoles via a low-temperature radical initiator V-70 (2,2′-azobis(4- methoxy-2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile)) led to the highly efficient syntheses of tryprostatins A and B.
A palladium-catalyzed synthesis of isatins (1H-Indole-2,3-diones) from 1-(2-haloethynyl)-2-nitrobenzenes

experimental part, p. 7357 - 7363 (2009/12/04)
An inherently regiospecific synthesis of isatins (1H-indole-2,3-diones) starting from 1-halo-2-nitrobenzenes is described. The isatins are formed by an intramolecular palladium-catalyzed annulation of 2-(2-haloethynyl)-1-nitrobenzenes via the formation of 2-haloisatogens.
