We developed a green method for the synthesis of spiro[4.5]trienones through an electrochemical oxidative halocyclization with N-aryl alkynamides. This reaction was conducted under metal-catalyst- and exogenous-oxidant-free conditions at room temperature. Using readily available LiCl, LiBr, and LiI as the halogen source, a variety of dearomative halo-spirocyclization products were obtained in good

An efficient intramolecular ipso-halocyclization of para-unsubstituted N-arylpropynamides proceeds using readily available hypervalentiodinereagents as oxidant and potassium halides as halogen source under aqueous medium. This method shows a broad substrate scope and doesn't require any metal catalysts.

A novel electrophilic ipso-cyclization involving an electrophile-exchange process has been developed. In the presence of CuX (X = I, Br, SCN) and electrophilic fluoride reagents, a variety of N-(p-methoxyaryl)propiolamides and 4-methoxyphenyl 3-phenylpropiolate were cyclized to selectively afford the corresponding spiro[4.5]decenones in moderate to good yields. It is noteworthy that two azaquaternary tricyclic products were synthesized through a two-step pathway involving an electrophilic ipso-cyclization and then an intramolecular Heck reaction.
