Arynes are among the most active organic intermediates and have found numerous
applications in expeditious preparation of substituted arenes. In the past 20 years, chemists …

Although arynes are usually considered fleeting intermediates, they are highly valuable
synthons because they enable the introduction of aromatic rings and the simultaneous …

Described herein is a novel Brønsted acid catalyzed intramolecular hydroalkoxylation/
Claisen rearrangement, allowing the practical and atom‐economic synthesis of a range of …

Pyridinic nitrogen has been recognized as the primary active site in nitrogen‐doped carbon
electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), which is a critical process in many …

Abstract Aromatic [5, 5]-rearrangement can in principle be an ideal protocol to access
dearomative compounds. However, the lack of competent [5, 5]-rearrangement impedes the …

Both 1, 2, 4-trisubstitution and dearomative 1, 2, 4-trifunctionalization of benzyne have been
accomplished from sulfoxides bearing a penta-2, 4-dien-1-yl moiety. These cascade …

Due to experiencing a challenging dearomatization process, the aromatic sigmatropic
rearrangement of allyl naphthyl ethers is a difficult yet efficient method to build useful …

Hydropyrrolo [2, 3-b] indole is a privileged indoline motif, while its analogue, hydropyrrolo [3,
2-b] indole, has been much less explored. Herein, we developed a cascade reaction of …

A novel strategy for the synthesis of 1-pyrrolines based on formal [4+ 1] annulation of 2-alkyl-
2 H-azirines with diazocarbonyl compounds has been developed. This one-pot approach …

The synthesis of 1‐pyrrolines from N‐alkenylnitrones and alkynes has been explored as a
retrosynthetic alternative to traditional approaches. These cascade reactions are formal [4+ …
