Electrochemically driven, Cp*Ir(III)-catalyzed regioselective annulative couplings of benzoicacids with alkynes have been established herein. The combination of iridium catalyst and electricity not only circumvents the need for stoichiometric amount of chemical oxidant, but also ensures broad reaction compatibility with a wide array of sterically and electronically diverse substrates. This electrochemical

A one‐pot sequential N‐heterocyclic carbene–rhodium (NHC‐Rh) catalysis is described, demonstrating the compatibility of NHC and Rh catalysts. N‐Heterocyclic carbene‐catalyzedaerobicoxidation of benzaldehydes and subsequent rhodium(III)‐catalyzedoxidative coupling/annulation with multiple bonds enabled the formation of two C–O bonds and one C–C bond in a single pot. This operationally easy, one‐pot

The rhodium(III)-catalyzed tandem C–H olefination and cyclization of benzamides with various alkenes is described. This protocol provides direct access to highly substituted phthalides, which are known as crucial frameworks of biologically active compounds. In particular, the amide directing group containing a benzimidazole group facilitates the activation of aromatic ortho-C–H bonds leading to olefination

coupling of benzoicacids with internal alkynes effectively proceeds in the presence of [Cp*RhCl2]2 and Cu(OAc)2·H2O as catalyst and oxidant, respectively, to produce the corresponding isocoumarin derivatives. The copper salt can be reduced to a catalytic quantity under air. Interestingly, by using [Cp*IrCl2]2 in place of [Cp*RhCl2]2, the substrates undergo 1:2 coupling accompanied by decarboxylation to afford
