Optically active indole derivatives are ubiquitous in natural products and widely recognized as privileged components in pharmacologically relevant compounds. Therefore, developing catalytic asymmetric approaches for constructing indole derivatives is highly desirable. In this short review, transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective synthesis of indoles from 2-alkynylanilines is summarized. 1 Introduction 2 Aminometalation triggered asymmetric cross-coupling reaction/insertion 2.1 Asymmetric Cross-Coupling Reaction 2.2 Asymmetric insertion of C=O, C=C and C≡N bonds 3 Asymmetric relay catalysis 4 Conclusion

Amination and amidation of aryl compounds using a transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction typically involves prefunctionalization or preoxidation of either partner. In recent years, a new class of transition-metal-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction has been developed for the direct formation of aryl C–N bonds. This short review highlights the substantial progress made for ortho-C–N bond formation via transition-metal-catalyzed chelation-directed aryl C–H activation and gives an overview of the challenges that remain for directed meta- and para-selective reactions.1 Introduction2 Intramolecular C–N Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling2.1 Nitrogen Functionality as Both Coupling Partner and Directing Group2.2 Chelating-Group-Directed Intramolecular C–N Bond Formation3 Intermolecular C–N Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling3.1 ortho-C–N Bond Formation3.1.1 Copper-Catalyzed Reactions3.1.2 Other Transition-Metal-Catalyzed Reactions3.2 meta- and para-C–N Bond Formation4 C–N Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling of Acidic C–H Bonds5 Conclusions

AbstractTransition-metal-catalyzed C–N bond formation is one of the most important pathways to synthesize N-heterocycles. Hydroxylamines can be transformed into a nucleophilic reagent to react with a carbon cation or coordinate with a transition metal; it can also become an electrophilic nitrogen source to react with arenes, alkenes, and alkynes. In this short review, the progress made on transition-metal-catalyzed cycloadditions with hydroxylamines as a nitrogen source is summarized.1 Introduction2 Cycloaddition To Form Aziridine Derivatives2.1 Intramolecular Cycloaddition To Form Aziridine Derivatives2.2 Intermolecular Cycloaddition To Form Aziridine Derivatives3 Cycloaddition To Form Indole Derivatives4 Cycloaddition To Form Other N-Heterocycles4.1 Aza-Heck-Type Amination Reactions4.2 Nitrene Insertion Amination Reactions4.3 Intramolecular Nucleophilic and Electrophilic Amination Reactions5 Conclusion and Outlook

New class of biologically active and non-active compounds can be synthesized via transition metal mediated Suzuki cross coupling reaction that has a great impact on the advancement of organic chemistry. These resulted products can lend a helping hand in pharmaceutical and polymer chemistry for the betterment of mankind. Suzuki-Miyaura cross coupling reaction is one of the best tools through which many natural and non-natural compounds can be synthesized.

Herein, a synthetic approach using selective transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to thermally crosslinkable OLED materials­ based on vinyl-functionalized arylamines is reported. In a modular approach, 9,9-dialkyl-2,7-diiodo-9H-fluorene underwent a selective Ullmann cross-coupling reaction with bromo-substituted-diphenylamines to give 9,9-dialkyl-2,7-bis(bromo-substituted-diphenylamino)-9H-fluorenes that underwent end-functionalization by the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction using potassium vinyltrifluoroborate to give the corresponding 9,9-dialkyl-2,7-bis(vinyl-substituted-diphenylamino)-9H-fluorenes. Novel meta-functionalized materials were synthesized, which are difficult to prepare by traditional synthetic pathways. The thermal behavior of the compounds was investigated by DSC measurements, indicating a lower thermal sensitivity of the meta-substituted materials than their para-functionalized analogues.
