A highly efficient method for the construction of oxindole-pyrrolidone-thiazolidinone bispirocyclic heterocycles bearing three contiguous chiral centers including two quaternary one via a Michael/cyclization cascade reaction has been developed. Using bifunctional cinchona-derived squaramide as catalyst, the reactions of 3-isothio­cyanato oxindoles with unsaturated thiazolidinone derivatives proceeded smoothly under mild reaction conditions to afford a series of complex chiral oxindole-pyrrolidone-thiazolidinone bispirocyclic heterocycles in high yields (up to 99%) with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to >99:1 dr, >99% ee).

A simple and highly efficient method for the preparation of tetrasubstituted NH-pyrrole from a wide range of chalcones and diethyl iminodiacetates via a Cu(OAc)2-promoted oxidation/[3+2]cycloaddition/aromatization cascade reaction has been developed. This reaction proceeds through dehydrogenations, deamination, and oxidative cyclization, affording the corresponding products in good to excellent yields. This convenient methodology for constructing tetrasubstituted NH-pyrroles has several advantages over existing methods, such as the use of easily accessible chalcones and readily available diethyl iminodiacetates, and mild reaction conditions. A wide range of substrates are tolerated.

A general approach to substituted pyrrolidines via [3 + 2] 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between nonstabilized azomethine ylides and cyanosulfones was developed. The efficient method provides a series of substituted pyrrolidines bearing a quaternary carbon center in high yields (up to 98%) excellent diastereoselectivities (up to >25:1 dr) under ambient reaction conditions.

Abstract:: An efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of new pyrano[3,2-c] and pyrano[3,2-a]carbazole de-rivatives via a three component reaction of 4-hydroxycarbazole or 2-hydroxycarbazole, isocyanides, and dialkylacetylenedi-carboxylates. Noteworthy features of this protocol include mild reaction conditions, catalyst-free, high atom-economy and high yields.

We report a green and efficient method for the synthesis of trans-[3-(aryl)-2,3-dihydrofuro[3,2- h]quinolin-2-yl]-(4-chlorophenyl) methanones from the condensation of 2-[2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-oxoethyl)]isoquinolinium bromide with 8-hydroxyquinoline and an aromatic aldehyde in the presence of catalytic amounts of choline hydroxide in water at reflux conditions. This new protocol employing choline hydroxide, which is a green and inexpensive catalyst, offers advantages such as mild reaction conditions, short reaction time, high yields and does not involve any hazardous solvent. Therefore, this procedure can be classified as green chemistry.

A simple and highly efficient method has been developed for the tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols by their reaction with 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (DHP) using a catalytic amount (0.01–1 mol%) of aluminium triflate under solvent-free conditions. The effect of various factors like temperature, amount of the catalyst, and molar ratio of substrates on the reaction conditions has also been studied. The comparative study of tetrahydropyranylation of benzyl alcohol using various catalysts including some reported ones shows the efficiency of this catalyst.Key words: tetrahydropyranylation, aluminium triflate, alcohols, catalysis.
