A novel copper-catalyzedtandem C–S/C–C bond-forming reaction of 2-biaryl isothiocyanates with diaryliodonium salts was developed. This is the first general approach to synthesize phenanthridines from 2-biaryl isothiocyanates. This methodology has been successfully applied to the synthesis of trisphaeridine.

A novel Mn(II)-promoted tandem phosphorylation/cyclization reaction of 2-biaryl isothiocyanates with phosphine oxides is described. This is the first general method to synthesize 6-phosporylated phenanthridines from 2-biaryl isothiocyanates. The approach is featured by oxidant-free, low loading of P-reagent, easy operation, and high functional group tolerance.
