Heterocycles are found to be present as the fundamental core compositions of many natural
products, agrochemicals, and pharmaceuticals. Among all, the nitrogen-containing …

Annulations of unsaturated systems through C–H activation represent a powerful tool for
producing multicyclic scaffolds. Having coordinating centers in both annulation partners (a …

Recently, transition metal‐catalyzed ortho‐C− H bond activation/annulations involving two
internal alkyne molecules have been extensively used to synthesize highly substituted …

Rh‐catalyzed C− H activation of arenes for oxidative annulations with alkynes stands out as
a protocol for polycyclic scaffolds. This perspective drives us to disclose herein a rhodium …

A rhodium (III)-catalyzed Satoh–Miura type oxidative annulation of N-aryl 2-pyridone
derivatives is described using internal alkyne as a coupling partner. A weakly coordinating …

A Pd (II)-catalyzed straightforward oxidative naphthylation of unmasked 2-pyridone
derivatives is described using a twofold internal alkyne as a coupling partner. The reaction …

A Co (III)-catalyzed site-selective C5 and C6 benzannulation of substituted pyridones with 1,
6-diynes via dual C–H bond activation has been reported. The scope of the benzannulation …

An Ir (III)-catalyzed annulation of aryl amides with 1, 6-diynes via ortho-as well as meta-dual
