This short review describes the recent progress made on transition-metal-catalyzed annulative couplings for the synthesis of 3-methyleneisoindolin-1-ones, which are useful intermediates for the synthesis of numerous alkaloids and can be often found in a wide range of natural products and pharmaceuticals. In particular, new one-pot multiple C–C/C–N bond-forming processes for the construction of the 5-methylenepyrrol-2-one nucleus of such compounds are summarized.1 Introduction2 Intramolecular Cyclization Reactions: C3–N or C3–C3a and C–C Bond Formation3 Intermolecular Annulative Coupling Reactions3.1 C3–C3a and C3–N Bond Formation3.2 C1–C7a and C3–N Bond Formation3.3 C1–C7a and C1–N Bond Formation3.4 C1–C7a, C1–N and C3–N Bond Formation3.5 C3–C3a, C1–C7a, C1–N and C3–N Bond Formation: A Pd-Catalyzed One-Pot Sonogashira Coupling–Carbonylation–Amination–Cyclization Cascade4 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

Phosphines are widely used ligands in transition metal-catalyzed reactions. Arylphosphines, such as triphenylphosphine, were among the first phosphines to show broad utility in catalysis. Beginning in the late 1990s, sterically demanding and electronrich trialkylphosphines began to receive attention as supporting ligands. These ligands were found to be particularly effective at promoting oxidative addition in cross-coupling of aryl halides. With electron-rich, sterically demanding ligands, such as tri-tertbutylphosphine, coupling of aryl bromides could be achieved at room temperature. More importantly, the less reactive, but more broadly available, aryl chlorides became accessible substrates. Tri-tert-butylphosphine has become a privileged ligand that has found application in a wide range of late transition-metal catalyzed coupling reactions. This success has led to the use of numerous monodentate trialkylphosphines in cross-coupling reactions. This review will discuss the general properties and features of monodentate trialkylphosphines and their application in cross-coupling reactions of C–X and C–H bonds.

Two types of transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, which both lead to the formation of carbon-heteroatom bonds, are considered: RX + E-H and E-X + RM. The potential of addition reactions of E-H or E-E to double or triple bond in C-E bond formation is also demonstrated.

Herein, we describe a one-pot protocol for the synthesis of a novel series of polycyclic triazole derivatives. Transition metal-catalyzed decarboxylative CuAAC and dehydrogenative cross coupling reactions are combined in a single flask and achieved good yields of the respective triazoles (up to 97% yield). This methodology is more convenient to produce the complex polycyclic molecules in a simple way.

Considering the important applications of nitrogen-containing compounds in agrochemical materials and biomolecular drug molecules, research on methods for the construction of C–N bonds quickly and efficiently has become an important topic in synthetic chemistry. Carboxylic acids are inexpensive, stable, and non-toxic substances that are widely present in Nature, which makes them appealing as potential coupling partners for C(sp3)–N bond-forming reactions. Moreover, compared with the well-established transition-metal-catalyzed protocols, the rapid development of photoredox catalysis and electrochemical methods in recent years provides options for chemists to design new synthetic routes. In this short review, we concentrate on the decarboxylative C(sp3)–N coupling reactions mediated by visible light or electricity, with special attention on mechanistic insights.1 Introduction2 Photoredox-Mediated Decarboxylative C(sp3)–N Bond Formation2.1 Intramolecular Decarboxylation2.2 Intermolecular Decarboxylation3 Electrochemistry-Induced Decarboxylative C(sp3)–N Bond Formation3.1 Intramolecular Decarboxylation3.2 Intermolecular Decarboxylation4 Conclusions and Outlook
