A one-pot synthesis of isoindolin-1-imine derivatives

Rhodium catalyzed multicomponent dehydrogenative annulation: one-step construction of isoindole derivatives

A strategy for one-pot synthesis of isoindoles is described via a catalytic multicomponent dehydrogenative annulation of diarylimines, vinyl ketones and simple amines. In the presence of a rhodium catalyst and Cu oxidant, four C-H and two N-H bonds are activated along with the formation of one new C-C and two new C-N bonds, leading to a series of isoindole derivatives in good to very high isolated yields.

Efficient syntheses and antimicrobial activities of new thiophene containing pyranone and quinolinone derivatives using manganese(iii) acetate: the effect of thiophene on ring closure–opening reactions

The syntheses, spectroscopic properties, and antimicrobial activities of new pyranones and quinoline-based dihydrofurans accompanied by 3-alkenyl-substituted structures were investigated.

C3 functionalization of indolizines via In(iii)-catalyzed three-component reaction

Post-functionalization at the C3 position of indolizines via In(iii)-catalyzed three-component coupling reaction with amines and aldehydes allowed rapid access to a new class of indolizines with diverse functional groups at the C3 position in good to excellent yields.
