Divergent Metal-Free [4 + 2] Cascade Reaction of 1-Indanylidenemalononitrile with 3-Benzylidenebenzofuran-2(3H)-one: Access to Spiro-dihydrofluorene-benzofuranone and Axially Chiral Fluorenylamine-phenol Derivatives
Reactions of alkynoates with different types of radical precursors under metal-free conditions affording single-site-addition poly-substituted alkenes were reported.
A radical cascade reaction of 2-aryloxy phenylacetylene with phosphine oxides promoted by K2S2O8 was developed, provided diphosphonyl xanthenes as products. This reaction proceeds under transition metal-free and mild conditions with...
A transition-metal-free multicomponent cascade reaction of α-halogenated ketones, ortho-aminophenols, and aldehydes using a dipeptide phosphonium salt catalyst was developed for the construction of various 2H-1,4-benzoxazines.
A simple metal-free cyclization/oxidative aromatization reaction starting from 2-hydroxy-1,4-diones for the de novo synthesis of benzofurans was developed.
Herein, we describe a new transition metal-free Claisen rearrangement for the synthesis of α-substituted 2,4-dienamide. This one-pot, stereoselective three-component cascade reaction affords various polysubstituted 2,4-dienamides in good yields.
A one-pot transition-metal-free, base-mediated synthesis of a novel series of functionalized thieno[2,3-c]coumarins has been developed through a cascade reaction from chromones.
A novel base-promoted aerobic cascade reaction for the regiospecific synthesis of 2-(2-aminobenzoyl)benzoic acids under metal-free conditions is developed.
