Starting from readily available tertiary alcohols, four different reactions (i.e., a 1,3-migration of a hydroxy group, kinetic resolution, racemization, and an intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction) took place under the co-catalysis of lipase and oxovanadium compounds in a one-pot process to produce multisubstituted tricyclic carbon frameworks in high yields and high enantioselectivities. The key to the success of this process was the discovery that the silyl group attached to the terminal carbon of the vinyl moiety completely controls the direction of hydroxy group migration.

T3P was found to be an efficient catalyst for the Aza-Diels–Alder reactions of aldimines with dihydropyran or dihydrofuran to afford the corresponding pyrano-and furo [3,2-c]quinolines in high yields with high diastereoselectivity in a short period of time.

The p-TsOH-catalyzed Diels–Alder reaction of 3-(indol-3-yl)maleimides with chalcone in toluene at 60 °C afforded two diastereoisomers of tetrahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazoles, which can be dehydrogenated by DDQ oxidation in acetonitrile at room temperature to give the aromatized pyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazoles in high yields. On the other hand, the one-pot reaction of 3-(indol-3-yl)-1,3-diphenylpropan-1-ones with chalcones or benzylideneacetone in acetonitrile in the presence of p-TsOH and DDQ resulted in polyfunctionalized carbazoles in satisfactory yields. The reaction mechanism included the DDQ oxidative dehydrogenation of 3-(indol-3-yl)-1,3-diphenylpropan-1-ones to the corresponding 3-vinylindoles, their acid-catalyzed Diels–Alder reaction and sequential aromatization process.

A simple and efficient l-proline-catalysed synthesis of spiro(isoxazolo[5,4-b]pyridine-5,5′-pyrimidine) derivatives in water has been accomplished through a pseudo five-component one-pot domino aza-Diels–Alder reaction involving 3-amino crotanonitrile, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, aromatic aldehydes and barbituric acids. The main advantages of the present method are mild reaction conditions, modest purification process involving no chromatographic techniques and high yields. The protocol is a good alternative to prepare spiro derivatives with readily available starting materials, which makes the method highly attractive.
