Conspectus Dearomatization reactions serve as powerful methods for the synthesis of highly
functionalized, three-dimensional structures starting with simple planar aromatic …

Over the years, alkaloids derived from indole dearomatization, such as indolenine and
indolines have been evolved as promising therapeutic agents due to their important …

Dearomatization reactions provide the most efficient method for the synthesis of spiro-or
fused-ring systems from readily available compounds. This review summarizes the recent …

A palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation dearomatization of β-naphthols and indoles with
gem-difluorinated cyclopropanes has been developed. This reaction provided an efficient …

The first Ir-catalyzed intramolecular asymmetric allylic dearomatization reaction of pyridines,
pyrazines, quinolines, and isoquinolines has been developed. Enabled by in situ formed …

An Ir-catalyzed intermolecular asymmetric dearomatization reaction of substituted indoles
with allylic alcohols has been realized to afford the corresponding indoline derivatives in 71 …

An Ir-catalyzed asymmetric synthesis of five-membered aza-spiroindolenines is achieved.
Based on the detailed investigation of the reaction patterns of the aryl iminium migration, a …

A careful interplay between the π electrophilicity of a cationic AuI center and the basicity of
the corresponding counterion allowed for the chemo‐and regioselective inter‐as well as …

Intramolecular asymmetric allylic alkylation reactions of 5-and 7-hydroxyquinoline
derivatives were realized by a chiral Ir/NHC catalyst. A series of functionalized cyclic enones …

We report the intermolecular palladium-catalyzed reaction of tert-butyl propargyl carbonate
with tryptamine derivatives or other indole-containing bis-nucleophiles. The reaction …
