An auto-oxidation promoted sp3 C–H arylation reaction between N-aryl glycine derivatives and electron-rich arenes, leading to the formation of N-aryl α-aryl α-amino acid derivatives, is described. This atom-economical and environmentally benign reaction proceeds smoothly under mild reaction conditions and requires only Brønsted acid and oxygen (balloon). A plausible radical involved mechanism is proposed.

The synthesis of oxazolines using electrophilic cyclization of allylic amide is a simple and powerful method. However, cyclization involving arylsulfenylation requires harsh reaction conditions. We found that the reaction proceeds under mild heating conditions with the combination of a Brønsted acid and tetrabutylammonium chloride. This method enabled the synthesis of 5-[(arylsulfenyl)methyl]oxazoline derivatives under mild conditions and demonstrated high tolerance for various functional groups.

An organocatalytic interrupted three-component Ugi reaction for the synthesis of α,α–diaryl α–amino acid derivatives is described. The transformation proceeds with a range of isocyanides and 3-aryl isoindolinone alcohols using Brønsted acid catalysts to afford products in good to excellent yields. Based on the obtained results, a reaction mechanism is proposed and discussed.

AbstractThe regio- and stereoselective dearomatization of indoles is realized for the first time by combining readily available indolyl precursors and electron-rich allenes, namely allenamides and aryloxyallenes. Inter- as well as intramolecular condensations were realized under gold and Brønsted acid catalysis providing a range of densely functionalized indoline and indolenine cores in high yields and excellent stereochemical outcome. Chemodivergent reaction profiles (Micheal-type addition vs. [2+2]-cycloaddition) were realized by a tailored design of both reaction conditions and functionalization of the reaction partners.

An efficient approach for the synthesis of chromene derivatives from vinyl o-quinone methides was established via a Brønsted acid catalyzed electrocyclization. By using this methodology, a series of structurally diversified chromenes was synthesized in a highly atom-economic and environmentally benign manner with generally good to excellent yields (up to 98% yield). This reaction will not only provide an efficient method for the construction of chromene scaffolds, but also enrich the research area of o-quinone methides.

A novel gold(I)/Brønsted acid sequential catalyzed/promoted procedure to synthesize 1-alkyl-3-(2-oxo-2-aryl/alkyl-ethyl)indolin-2-ones under mild reaction conditions is developed. This methodology is realized by relay actions of gold and a Brønsted acid in a one-pot multistep manner. The gold(I)-catalyzed chemoselective C(sp2)-H functionalization of enaminones and Brønsted acid promoted cleavage of the C=C bond are integrated effectively. Based on the results of control experiments and ESI-MS analysis, a possible reaction mechanism is proposed.

A one-pot procedure for the aminoxylation of thioalkynes for the direct formation of α-functionalized thioesters under mild reaction conditions is reported. A ketenethionium ion is the key intermediate, which is generated in situ by Brønsted acid mediated protonation and undergoes a radical-polar crossover.
