Alkenes and their derivatives are featured widely in a variety of natural products,
pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials. Significant efforts have been made toward the …

Heterocyclic compounds are the fundamental structural motifs distributed in natural
products, pharmaceuticals and biologically active compounds. Thus, there is increasing …

An efficient method for the synthesis of bicyclic spirodiamine molecules via β-C (sp3)–H
bond activation of aliphatic amides, followed by cyclization with maleimides, has been …

Presented herein is a condition-controlled selective synthesis of pyrazolonyl
spirodihydroquinolines or pyrazolonyl spiroindolines through formal [5+ 1] or [4+ 1] …

The efficient and selective synthesis of functionalized seven‐membered rings remains an
important pursuit within synthetic organic chemistry, as this motif appears in numerous drug …

Herein, we report a mild and highly regioselective Rh (III)-catalyzed non-oxidative [5+ 1]
vinylic C–H annulation of 2-alkenylanilides with allenyl acetates, which has been elusive so …

Abstract The [5+ 2] cycloaddition allows the synthesis of a diversity of complex highly
functionalized seven‐membered products in a single step. These cycloadducts can readily …

The [5+ 2] cycloaddition is one kind of fascinating and powerful reaction to access seven-
membered ring systems existing in complex natural products and pharmaceuticals. In this …

We report the first examples of the use of a new class of ligands (NOBINAc) for performing
asymmetric C–H activations using palladium catalysts. These ligands combine the axial …

Transition‐metal‐catalyzed C− H functionalizations with allenes lead to unique selectivity
challenges due to the presence of two adjacent carbon–carbon double bonds, which …
