Trapping of the resulting cyclic radicals results in C-C, C-N, C-O, C-S, or C-X bond formation. Allylic sulfides undergo a tandem cyclization-thiyl radical β-elimination, affording terminal alkenes. The cyclizations exhibit a broad scope, and in some cases they are highly diastereoselective. The pyrroline adducts are versatile intermediates that can be transformed into a range of different species.A Rh(III)-catalyzed Csp2-Csp3 σ-bond carbenoid functionalization of α-(2-indolyl)alcohols with acceptor/acceptor diazo compounds has been developed. This transformation provides an efficient strategy to assemble stable C2-enolated indole skeletons via Csp2-Csp3 σ-bond cleavage.A new asymmetric catalytic conjugate reduction of yne-allenones to synthesize enantioenriched cyclobuta[a]naphthalen-4(2H)-ones has been established that uses copper-bisphosphine complexes as catalysts and gives excellent regio- and enantioselectivities (≥99% ee) in most cases. This protocol tolerates a broad scope of substrates, exhibits high compatibility with various substituents, and gives excellent stereoselectivity, providing a catalytic and efficient entry to fabrication of synthetically important chiral 6-6-4 tricarbocyclic scaffolds.A unique strategy for the attainment of a discotic nematic (ND) mesophase is reported consisting of a central benzene core to which are attached two 4-alkylphenyl and two 4-pentylbiphenyl moieties diagonally via alkynyl linkers. The rotational nature and incompatibility of unequal phenylethynyl units led to the disruption of π-π interactions within cores that aids to the realization of ND phase and favors high solid-state emission. When used in OLEDs, compounds act as an efficient solid-state pure deep-blue emitter with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIEx,y) coordinates of (0.16, 0.07
