Moreover, a range of heterocyclic compounds were easily prepared through follow-up procedures of 1,4-diketones.
RESUMEN
The first nickel-catalyzed oxidative domino Csp3-H/N-H double isocyanide insertion reaction of acetamides with isocyanides has been developed for the synthesis of pyrrolin-2-one derivatives. A wide range of acetamides bearing various functional groups are compatible with this reaction system by utilizing Ni(acac)2 as a catalyst. In this transformation, isocyanide could serve as a C1 connector and insert into the inactive Csp3-H bond, representing an effective way to construct heterocycles.

Moreover, the protocol has the merits of broad substrate scope, atom economy and operational simplicity.
RESUMEN
An environmentally-friendly and facile protocol for the construction of tetrasubstituted alkenes has been established with Ru(ii)-catalyzed C-H bond functionalizations under mild conditions. The method features the usage of readily available substrates, without external oxidants and additives, 100% atom economy, and excellent regioselectivity, thus enhancing the practicability of this protocol. Moreover, this transformation proceeded smoothly under aqueous conditions and could be extended to the gram scale. N-Methoxyamide, as a directing group (DG), played a vital role in the transformation.
RESUMEN
An efficient method to selectively construct benzofuran and dihydrobenzofuro[2,3- d]oxazole derivatives has been successfully established by means of base-controlled cyclization of N-phenoxyamides with 1-[(triisopropylsilyl)ethynyl]-1,2-benziodoxol-3(1 H)-one (TIPS-EBX). N-phenoxyamides as multitasking reagents have triggered two different cascade reaction sequences. This is the first example of using TIPS-EBX for the transformation of C(sp) to either C(sp2) or C(sp3) under metal-free conditions.

This protocol is characterized by wide substrate scope utilizing cheap cobalt catalysts, and offers a new approach to 3-methyleneisoindolin-1-one, which can be converted into an oxadiazine salt in one step. Moreover, the directing group could be removed in three steps.
RESUMEN
Highly effective CuCl-mediated C-H alkoxylation of arenes and heteroarenes has been developed by using a 2-aminopyridine 1-oxide moiety as an N,O-bidentate directing group. The reaction proceeds smoothly using a broad range of substrates to afford o-alkoxylated benzoic and heteroaromatic amide products. Moreover, the reaction system shows remarkable compatibility when hexafluoroisopropanol is used as a coupling parter; halogen, nitro, ether, alkoxy, ester, and sulfonyl functional groups are all tolerated. The directing group can be easily removed by base hydrolysis, affording o-alkoxylated benzoic acids.

The first straightforward strategy for the synthesis of 1,4-dicarbonyl Z-alkenes has been developed via an electrochemical cross-coupling reaction of sulfoxonium ylides and alkynes with water. The metal-free protocol showed an easy-to-handle nature, good functional group tolerance, and high Z-stereoselectivity, which is rare in previous cases. The proposed reaction mechanism was convincingly established by carrying out a series of control experiments, cyclic voltammetry experiments, and density functional theory (DFT) studies.
RESUMEN
Steroids, renowned for endocrine-disrupting capabilities, have garnered significant research interest, predominantly centered on their parent forms. This study was the first to explore the composition, spatiotemporal characteristics, sources, mass inventories, and ecological risks of steroids in free and conjugated forms in estuarine sediments. Seventeen steroids were identified in sediments with the total levels of 1.3-4.3 ng/g. Most natural steroids and metabolites existed in free forms, while synthetic ones predominantly stored in conjugates. Environmental factors exerted limited impacts on steroid distribution. Raw domestic wastewater, drug consumption, and mariculture may be leading steroid sources in estuarine sediments, with total mean mass inventories of 177-219 µg/m2. The predominant contributors to the ecological risk were cortisol, prednisolone, 20α-dihydroprogesterone, 20ß-dihydroprogesterone, and progesterone. This research gives the first insight into the understanding of conjugated steroids in the marine environment, and advocates for more studies on the fate and ecotoxicology of conjugated steroids.

RESUMEN
We report here a catalytic selective cage B4-H amination of o-carboranes employing an Ir(III) complex as a catalyst and anthranils as aminating agents, leading to a large class of B4-aminated o-carboranes with very high yields and a broad substrate scope under mild conditions without any oxidants. In these reactions, the carboxyl group serves as a traceless directing unit to determine the site selectivity and degree of substitution.
RESUMEN
A highly efficient Ir-catalyzed regioselective cage B(4)-H acylmethylation of o-carboranyl acids using sulfoxonium ylides as alkylating regents has been developed, leading to the preparation of a large class of B(4)-acylmethylated o-carboranes in good to excellent yields with a broad substrate scope under redox neutral conditions. The -COOH moiety serves as the traceless directing group and controls the regioselectivity and monoselectivity.
RESUMEN
An efficient electrochemical synthesis of sulfonated phenanthrenes via the reaction of internal alkynes with sulfonyl hydrazides has been established. The protocol does not require a metal catalyst or external oxidants, providing a green and mild route to functionalized phenanthrenes. Moreover, the compatibility of various functional groups and decagram-scale experimental conditions demonstrate the practicality of the electrochemical strategy.
RESUMEN
We report an approach for the synthesis of benzothiophene motifs under electrochemical conditions by the reaction of sulfonhydrazides with internal alkynes. Upon the formation of a quaternary spirocyclization intermediate by the selective ipso-addition instead of an ortho-attack, the S-migration process was rationalized to lead to the products. Computational studies revealed the selectivity and the compatibility of drug molecules showcased the potential application of the protocols.
RESUMEN
Due to strong endocrine disrupting effects, steroids in the environment have attracted substantial attention, with studies mostly focusing on the parent steroids. Here, we conducted the first investigation on the contamination profiles, possible sources, mass inventories, and ecological risks of 27 steroids and their metabolites in 15 typical fishing ports in Southeast China. Twelve steroids were detectable in the sediment samples with the total mean concentrations of 4.6-35 ng/g. High proportions of steroid metabolites were measured in the sediments and five metabolites were newly observed. Untreated municipal sewage and aquaculture wastes constitute the possible steroid sources in the studied fishing ports. The total inventories of steroids in fishing ports ranged from 2.1-16 mg/m2, with their metabolites being important contributors. The ecological risk analysis indicated high risks across all sampling sites mainly due to the contributions of parent steroids. Furthermore, our results found that progesterone is an acceptable chemical indicator for various steroids in sediments. This study provides the first evidence of steroid metabolites in the marine environment, calling for more studies in environmental behavior and ecotoxicology of steroid metabolites.

RESUMEN
A new strategy is reported for intramolecular Buchner-type reactions using PIDA as a promotor. Traditionally, the Buchner reaction is achieved via Rh-carbenoids derived from RhII catalysts with diazo compounds. Herein, the first metal-free Buchner-type reaction to construct highly strained cycloheptatriene- and cyclopropane-fused lactams is presented. The advantage of these transformations is in their mild reaction conditions, simple operation, broad functional group compatibility and rapid synthetic protocol. In addition, scaled-up experiments and a series of follow-up synthetic procedures were performed to clarify the flexibility and practicability of this method. DFT calculations were carried out to clarify the mechanism.
