A novel oxidative amination of sp3 C–H bonds was developed for the efficient synthesis of imidazo[1,5-a]quinolines from readily available α-amino acids and (2-azaaryl)methanes. This domino protocol, which was established in a TBAI-TBHP oxidation system, includes transition-metal-free decarboxylation and intramolecular cyclization. This method represented a new avenue for the synthesis of N-heterocycles using 2-methylquinolines as the synthon of quinoline-2-carbaldehydes.

Flavone and analogues represent an important class of biologically and pharmacologically active substances commonly found in the composition of diverse plants as part of the class of secondary metabolites. Herein, we have demonstrated an efficient and regioselective synthetic strategy for the preparation of functionalized flavones through sequential demethylation/6-endo-dig intramolecular cyclization of propyn-1-ones, using catalytic amounts of base in the presence of a thiol, by employing NMP as the solvent. The reactions proceeded smoothly under transition-metal-free and open to air conditions, furnishing the desired six-membered heterocycles in moderate to excellent yields, in short reaction time.

This review describes the progress of the last decade on the synthesis of substituted benzofurans, which are useful scaffolds for the synthesis of numerous natural products and pharmaceuticals. In particular, new intramolecular and intermolecular C–C and/or C–O bond-forming processes, with transition-metal catalysis or metal-free are summarized. (1) Introduction. (2) Ring generation via intramolecular cyclization. (2.1) C7a–O bond formation: (route a). (2.2) O–C2 bond formation: (route b). (2.3) C2–C3 bond formation: (route c). (2.4) C3–C3a bond formation: (route d). (3) Ring generation via intermolecular cyclization. (3.1) C7a-O and C3–C3a bond formation (route a + d). (3.2) O–C2 and C2–C3 bond formation: (route b + c). (3.3) O–C2 and C3–C3a bond formation: (route b + d). (4) Benzannulation. (5) Conclusion.

A concise transition-metal-free strategy for the synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines with enone substituents has been developed. It includes the following key steps: (a) cross-coupling of pyrroles with acyl(bromo)acetylenes in solid alumina at room temperature to give 2-(acylethynyl)pyrroles; (b) addition of propargylamine to the above acetylenes to form the corresponding N-propargylenaminones; and (c) chemo- and stereoselective base-catalyzed (Cs2CO3/DMSO) intramolecular cyclization of the synthesized propargylic derivatives to form (acylmeth­ylidene)pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazines of Z-configuration.
