A ruthenium-catalyzed intermolecular [3 + 2] cycloaddition of 2H-azirines and activated alkynes is reported, which provides polysubstituted pyrroles in moderate to good yields. This approach features a C–N bond cleavage of 2H-azirines by a ruthenium catalyst. The results of this study would provide a complementary method to synthesize polysubstituted pyrroles from the known 2H-azirine approaches and
A formal [3 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction of 2H-azirines with nitrosoarenes has been achieved under irradiation by visible light with the assistance of organic dye photoredox catalyst. This method utilizes nitrosoarenes as efficient radical acceptors and provides a green and powerful method for a series of biologically important 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives in moderate to good yields.

2H‐azirines can serve as three‐atom synthons by C−C bond cleavage, however, it involves a high energy barrier under thermal conditions (>50.0 kcal mol−1). Reported is a ruthenium‐catalyzed [3+2+2] cycloaddition reaction of 2H‐azirines with diynes, thus leading to the formation of fused azepine skeletons. This approach features an unprecedented metal‐catalyzed C−C bond cleavage of 2H‐azirines at room
