acetates and xanthates for the synthesis of thiazol-2-yl ethers with remarkable regioselectivity has been developed. Various oxime acetates, whether derived from aryl ketones or alkyl ketones, or natural product cores are suitable for this conversion. Unique dihydrothiazoles were also obtained when both reaction sites were methine. Mechanistic studies indicated that imino copper(III) intermediates were involved
Chemoselective [3 + 2] annulation of oxime acetate with 2-aryl-3-ethoxycarbonyl-pyrroline-4,5-dione: an entry to pyrrolo[2,3-<i>b</i>]pyrrole derivatives
A novel chemoselective [3 + 2] annulation reaction of easily accessible ketoxime acetate with 2-aryl-3-ethoxycarbonyl pyrroline-4,5-dione has been developed for the synthesis of unknown pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrrole frameworks. This method involves copper-mediated N–O bond cleavage followed by the formation of carbon–carbon and carbon–nitrogen bonds. This operationally simple protocol provides broader functional
A novel copper-catalyzedC(sp3)-H oxidative functionalization of aromatic oxime acetates with [small alpha]-oxocarboxylic acids was reported. This process involved N-O/C-C bondcleavages and C-C bond formations to furnish substituted enaminones under...

-Acyl Oximes with Isatins: Domino Rearrangement Strategy for Direct Access to Quinoline-4-Carboxamides by C-N Bond Cleavage
A mild domino rearrangement strategy for the direct access to substituted quinoline‐4‐carboxamides has been developed. This copper‐catalyzed coupling reaction of O‐acyl oximes with isatins in the presence of molecular oxygen as the sole oxidizing agent proceeds through a ring expansion of the isatins through cleavage of the two CN bonds
We describe herein a palladium-catalyzed Heck-type reaction of O-acetyl ketoximes and allylicalcohols to pyridines. This protocol allows robust synthesis of pyridines and azafluorenones in good to excellent yields with...
