AbstractThe use of nitroarenes as amino sources in synthesis is challenging. Herein is reported an unusual, straightforward, and transition metal-free method for the net [3 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction of 2-azaallyl anions with nitroarenes. The products of this reaction are diverse 2,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazoles (>40 examples, up to 95% yield). This method does not require an external reductant to reduce nitroarenes, nor does it employ nitrosoarenes, which are often used in N–O cycloadditions. Instead, it is proposed that the 2-azaallyl anions, which behave as super electron donors (SEDs), deliver an electron to the nitroarene to generate a nitroarene radical anion. A downstream 2-azaallyl radical coupling with a newly formed nitrosoarene is followed by ring closure to afford the observed products. This proposed reaction pathway is supported by computational studies and experimental evidence. Overall, this method uses readily available materials, is green, and exhibits a broad scope.

The synthesis of a variety of 2-oxindoles bearing an all-carbon quaternary center at the pseudo benzylic position has been achieved via a ‘transition-metal-free’ intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling (IDC). The construction of 2-oxindole moieties was carried out through formation of carbon–carbon bonds using KOt-Bu-catalyzed one pot C-alkylation of β-N-arylamido esters with alkyl halides followed by a dehydrogenative coupling. Experimental evidences indicated toward a radical-mediated path for this reaction.

A novel PhI(OAc)2-mediated cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction of α-C(sp3)–H bonds adjacent to a hetero atom with various azoles has been developed, which provides an alternative method for constructing C–N bonds with high atom efficiency. This new protocol requires no metal catalyst and it provides ready access to a wide range of N-alkylated azole derivatives in moderate to excellent yields by using commercially available PhI(OAc)2 as the sole oxidant. Furthermore, the method is effective on a gram scale, which highlights the practicality of this transformation. The result of radical-captured experiments indicated that the transformation might involve a free-radical pathway.
