RESUMO
Direct oxidative coupling of inert C(sp3 )-H bond has been a great challenge. Herein, an environmentally friendly aerobic oxidative coupling of α-methyl substituted N-heteroarenes with indoles is reported. A variety of diheteroaryl ketones were prepared in good yields (up to 72 %). This protocol features simple operation and broad substrates scope (26 examples). Significantly, a plausible mechanism about catalytic cycle was proposed, and two key intermediates were confirmed by high resolution mass spectrometry.

A metal-free inactive C(sp3)-H bond functionalization of thioethers with styrenes using TBHP as an initiator and DBU as a base has been developed. This transformation has broken through the low activity of thioethers and realized moderate yields. Herein extended experiments were conducted to confirm the radical relay process, reaction energy and intermediate transformations.
RESUMO
Pericoterpenoid A (1), a new cadinane-type sesquiterpene, was isolated from an endolichenic fungal strain Periconia sp. (No. 19-4-2-1). Its structure was characterized by analyzing the spectroscopic data (IR, MS, 1D- and 2D-NMR). The antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Aspergillus niger, and Candida albicans was evaluated. Pericoterpenoid A showed moderate antimicrobial activity against A. niger and weak activity against C. albicans. This is the first report of the presence of cadinane-type sesquiterpene in Periconia sp.

The synthesis of bioactive amides has been the pursuit of chemists. Herein secondary amides incorporated with an aldehyde group were first generated using aldehydes and secondary amines. Various (hetero)aryl aldehydes and even aliphatic aldehydes (>40 examples) were converted into the desired products in moderate to excellent yields (up to 89%). A plausible mechanism involving a Cu(I/II/III) catalytic cycle combined with radical rearrangement was proposed and confirmed with four key intermediates detected by high-resolution mass spectrometry.
RESUMO
The first sequentially combined inorganic base promoted N-addition/[2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement reaction of α-alkylidene pyrazolinones and propargyl sulfonium salts has been reported to construct homoallyl sulfur-containing pyrazolones with moderate to excellent yields. α-Alkylidene pyrazolinones function as N-nucleophilic agents distinguished from the reported C-addition reactions. Propargyl sulfonium salts were first involved in the [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement protocol differentiated from the well-established annulation reactions. The excellent regioselectivity, the broad scope of substrates, gram-scale synthesis and convenient transformation embody the synthetic superiority of this cascade process.
RESUMO
Rare-earth catalysis has become a hot topic in the field of catalytic organic reaction. Chain ethers mostly have lower reactivity and lower boiling points which limited their reaction scope. Herein, we found a rare-earth Y(OTf)3 can catalyze the coupling reaction of ethers especially chain ethers and thioethers with azaarenes. This protocol features simple operations, a broad substrate scope (31 examples), moderate to good yields (up to 85%), and atom economy.
RESUMO
Fusicoccane diterpenoids usually possess a fused 5-8-5 tricyclic ring system, which are biogenetically generated from geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGDP). In our report, three novel diterpenoid alkaloids with fusicoccane skeleton, pericolactines A-C (1-3), were isolated from Periconia sp.. Their structures with absolute configurations were determined by spectroscopic analyses and quantum chemical ECD calculation. Pericolactines A-C (1-3) are a new class of diterpenoid alkaloids with an unusual fused 5-5-8-5 tetracyclic ring system, which derive from a geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGDP) and serine conjugated biosynthesis. They belong to the atypical diterpenoid alkaloids.

Stachybisbins A (1) and B (2), two new meroterpenoids with unprecedented seco-bisabosqual skeleton, together with three biogenetically related metabolites (3-5), were isolated from a wetland fungal strain of Stachybotrys bisbyi. The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectroscopic analyses, modified Mosher's method, and quantum chemical CD method. The cytotoxic activities of all compounds were tested against HL-60, SMMC-7721, A-549, MCF-7, and SW480 human cancer cell lines.

One new dihydroisocoumarin, pericocin A (1), one new chromone, pericocin B (2), and two new α-pyrone derivatives, pericocins C-D (3-4), together with two known compounds, 3-(2-oxo-2H-pyran-6-yl)propanoic acid (5) and (E)-3-(2-oxo-2H-pyran-6-yl)acrylic acid (6), were isolated from the culture of the endolichenic fungus Periconia sp.. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. All these compounds are derived from the polyketone biosynthetic pathway. Compound 1 was obtained as a mixture of enantiomers. The antimicrobial activity of compounds 1-5 was tested against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Aspergillus niger, and Candida albicans. Compounds 1-5 showed moderate antimicrobial activity against A. niger and weak activity against C. albicans.
