RESUMO
Reactions with diverse C1 synthons to realize homologation were well explored. However, homologations occurring twice with one C1 synthon in a reaction were less reported. We disclose herein a Cu(II)-catalyzed novel and efficient synthesis of 2H-chromenes from 2-naphthols, 1,3-diketones, and N,N-dimethylethanolamine (DMEA) as a dual carbon synthon. Various 2H-chromenes with different functional groups are constructed in moderate to good yields. This is the first report that DMEA acts as a dual C1 synthon.
RESUMO
The metal-free cyclization of allenyl ketones and p-toluenesulfonylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC), promoted by Cs2CO3, provides a convenient access to tetrasubstituted pyrroles in which an acyl group undergoes 1,2-migration. This tandem Michael addition/annulative migration synthetic strategy is general and high-yielding for various substituted allenyl ketones. Moreover, a phosphoryl or ester moiety is also a suitable functionality to enable such migration.
RESUMO
Herein, a Cu(II)-catalyzed facile construction of synthetically valuable spiro compounds from ß-naphthols in air is reported, in which N,N-dimethylaminoethanol (DMEA) serves as an efficient and unique C1 synthon. This transformation proceeds through an ortho-quinone methide (o-QM) formation/Michael addition/dearomatization sequence, affording various spiro(naphthalenenaphtho)furan-2-ones in moderate to excellent yields.
RESUMO
The synthesis of N-heterocycles composes a significant part of synthetic chemistry. In this report, a Cu(II)-catalyzed green and efficient synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline, quinazolin-4-one, and benzo[4,5]imidazoquinazoline derivatives was developed, employing N,N-dimethylethanolamine (DMEA) as a C1 synthon. Green oxidant O2 is critical in these transformations, facilitating the formation of a key intermediateâa reactive iminium ion. The method conducted under mild conditions is compatible with a diversity of functional groups, providing an appealing alternative to the previously developed protocols.

An effective rhodium(III) catalysis for the construction of valuable tetracyclic compounds is described herein. This domino process involving the C-H activation/[3 + 2] annulation/intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction sequences of simple and readily available N-Boc hydrazones and propargylic monofluoroalkynes afforded fused tetracyclic spiro[cyclobutane-1,9'-indeno[1,2-a]indenes] in moderate to good yields, featuring three C-C bond formation. Moreover, control experiments indicated that the C-H activation might be involved in the rate-determining step.

Nanoscale silver (n-Ag) including silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs), silver chloride nanoparticles (AgCl-NPs), and silver sulfide nanoparticles (Ag2S-NPs) and their corresponding ionic counterpart, namely, dissolved Ag, may coexist in soils. X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES) is used to elucidate the speciation of n-Ag in soils, whereas it possesses drawbacks like high costs, rare availability of the instrument, and providing semiquantitative data. We developed a new method for the identification and speciation of n-Ag in soils and sediments based on a sequential extraction technique coupled with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. Extraction conditions were first evaluated, establishing the optimal extraction procedure; Ag-NPs, AgCl-NPs, and dissolved Ag in soil were simultaneously extracted by using an aqueous solution of 10 mM tetrasodium pyrophosphate, followed by selective isolation and quantification via AgCl-NPs dissolution (4.45 M aqueous ammonia), centrifugation (Ag-NPs), and detection. The Ag2S-NPs remaining in the soil were then extracted with Na2S solution at pH 7.0 through selective complexation. Optimal recoveries of Ag-NPs, AgCl-NPs, Ag2S-NPs, and dissolved Ag were 99.1 ± 2.4%, 112.0 ± 3.4%, 96.4 ± 4.0%, and 112.2 ± 4.1%, respectively. The method was validated to investigate the speciation of n-Ag in soils and sediments, exhibiting the distribution of Ag-NPs, AgCl-NPs, Ag2S-NPs, and dissolved Ag in each sample, wherein Ag2S-NPs, the major species of n-Ag, accounted for 35.42-68.87% of the total Ag. The results of n-Ag speciation in soil are comparable to those obtained through the linear combination fitting of XANES. This method thus is a powerful, yet convenient, substitute for XANES to understand the speciation of n-Ag in complex solid matrices.
RESUMO
The transition-metal-free synthesis of unsymmetrical and highly functionalized triarylmethanes through arylation of the situ generated o-QMs from diarylmethyl p-tolyl sulfones with aryl zinc reagents is described. Alkyl zinc reagents are also well tolerated in this reaction. Additionally, the straightforward synthesis of the analogue of the antituberculosis agent A and the key precursor of the anti-breast-cancer agent B are achieved by this strategy.

A divergent synthetic strategy to functionalize the indole nucleus with readily available 2-furylcarbinols was developed. It was found that the 3-(4-oxo-2-cyclopentenyl)indoles were obtained in moderate to good yields (up to 89%) through Piancatelli reaction catalyzed by ZnCl2, whereas employment of Brønsted acid TFA afforded directly coupled product 3-(2-furyl)indoles in moderate to good yields (up to 87%) via the deprotonation-rearomatization route.
RESUMO
The tunable nucleophilic nitration of 3-cyclopropylideneprop-2-en-1-ones with cheap sodium nitrite is described. This transformation proceeds with the assistance of a strained cyclopropane ring and allows for a divergent route to various synthetically useful ß,γ-dinitro or γ-mononitro adducts in high yields with exclusive regio- and stereoselectivity. Additionally, a wide array of valuable functionalized N-unprotected pyrroles is achieved from the resulting ß,γ-dinitro compounds via reductive cyclization strategy.

RESUMO
A 1-hydroxybenzotriazole-assisted, N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed direct ß-functionalization of saturated carboxylic esters is disclosed. This formal [3 + 2] annulation reaction of carboxylic esters with isatins affords optically pure spirooxindole lactones (on gram scale) bearing two vicinal stereogenic centers. A dual role of HOBt is proposed based on controlled experiments to rationalize the enhancement of diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity.

RESUMO
A copper-free allylic arylation reaction between 3,3-disubstituted allylic halides and triazene-softened aryl Grignard reagents has been developed. This protocol presents a direct and efficient way to construct both α- or γ-isomers with high regioselectivity under environmentally benign conditions. Various functional groups can be tolerated in the reaction and the products are of high value for multiple synthetic applications. The α- and γ-isomers can be converted to the corresponding 3H-indole and indole derivatives in multigram scale respectively.

The efficient synthesis of fluorenes from biaryl triazenes is successfully developed. Up to 27 examples of biaryl triazenes are converted into their corresponding fluorene derivatives in the presence of CF3COOH (4.0 equiv). Mechanism research indicates that the reaction undergoes concerted processes, and pentacoordinate carbocations may be involved in these reactions.

RESUMO
CuCl-catalyzed cyclization-dimerization reactions of 3-cyclopropylideneprop-2-en-1-ones provide an interesting route to benzofuran-7(3aH)-one derivatives with one highly strained three-membered ring and one four-membered ring via intramolecular cycloisomerization, sequential bimolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition, opening of the oxa-bridge, and ring contraction. Furthermore, the reaction was monitored by NMR experiments to unveil some key intermediates.
RESUMO
The unprecedented dimerizations of 2H-azirines have been developed under the catalysis of palladium and silver. Upon changing the reaction conditions, the fully aryl-substituted pyrrole and pyrimidine derivatives were furnished in moderate yields with regiospecificity, respectively. Control experiments uncovered distinct catalytic effects of two transition metals, and the proposed catalytic cycles plausibly rationalized the chemodivergence and regioselectivity.
