A metal-free oxidative C(sp3)–N coupling process has been developed for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones. The reaction between primary amines, isatoic anhydride, and benzylic alcohols in the presence of HBr in DMSO at 80 °C affords 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones in excellent yields. Under these reaction conditions, benzylic alcohols react with in situ generated bromodimethylsulfonium bromide to form alkoxysulfonium intermediates. These intermediates undergo an oxidative cyclization reaction with primary amines and isatoic anhydride to produce the title products.

Herein we describe a very useful application of the readily available trifunctional aromatic ketone methyl-2-(2-bromoacetyl)benzoate in reactions with primary amines. An unexpected in situ air oxidation that follows a cascade process allowed the access to a series of isoquinoline-1,3,4(2H)-triones, a class of heterocyclic compounds of great interest containing an oxygen-rich heterocyclic scaffold. A modification of the original protocol, utilizing a Staudinger reaction in the presence of trimethylphosphine, was necessary for the synthesis of Caspase inhibitor trione with free NH group.

A simple metal-free borylation of aryl iodides mediated by a fluoride sp2–sp3 diboron adduct is described. The reaction conditions are compatible with various functional groups. Electronic effects of substituents do not affect the borylation while steric hindrance does. The reaction proceeds via a radical mechanism in which pyridine serves to stabilize the boryl radicals, generated in situ.

An iodine-mediated oxidative cyclization reaction between 2-(pyridin-2-yl)acetate derivatives and different alkynes has been developed, which provides regioselective and chemoselective syntheses of multiply substituted indolizines under modified reaction conditions. Plausible mechanisms have been proposed to explain the selective syntheses of indolizines. This protocol can be also applied to the stepwise synthesis of 2,2′-biindolizines.

An efficient and practical transition-metal-free radical ­coupling reaction of sulfonyl hydrazides mediated by NIS/K2S2O8 has been developed to afford a variety of biological activity thiosulfonates in moderate to excellent yields. Compared to a known approach for the synthesis of thiosulfonates from sulfonyl hydrazides, this strategy features high yields, mild reaction conditions, and broad substrate scope. The mechanistic studies revealed that the procedure undergoes via a radical cross-coupling process for the construction of S–S bonds.

A facile, rapid, metal-free regioselective halogenation and thiocyanation of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine/pyrimidine heterocycles has been achieved under solvent-free reaction conditions. Halogenations and thiocyanation of the heterocycles could be accomplished by simple grinding of reactants and hypervalent iodine reagents with the corresponding alkali metal or ammonium salts. The method has been extrapolated to a cleaner synthesis of brominated imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine/pyrimidine derivatives, starting from the corresponding heterocyclic amines and substituted α-bromoketones, utilising HBr generated in situ as the source of bromine.

A facile route for the synthesis of diverse range of N-acylbenzotriazole derivatives from corresponding carboxylic acids has been established through carbonyl activation pathway. In this method, trichloroacetonitrile is performed as an effective reagent for an easy access of N-acylbenzotriazoles which was simply proceed through the activation of carboxylic acids via in situ imidate formation in anhydrous 1,2 dichloroethane followed by addition of 1H-benzotriazole at 80 oC for 3-4 hours. Easy handling, one-pot, and metal-free condition demonstrate the notable merits of the devised protocol.
