Abstract We herein report the unprecedented synthesis of diverse biologically important aza‐heterocycles by employing sulfilimines as nitrene transfer reagents. This class sulfur‐based aza‐ylides had not been successfully used for gold before. work contains an efficient generation α‐imino carbenes N−S cleavage sulfilimines. These undergo C−H insertion, cyclopropanation, and nucleophilic attack to form indoles (44 examples), 3‐azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexan‐2‐imines (24 imidazoles (3 examples). Our study represents a unique gold‐catalyzed reaction between alkynes sulfur ylides, also includes first aza‐heterocycle that proceeds intermolecular followed cyclopropanation carbenes. Moreover, unexpected 4‐acylquinolines examples) from 2‐acylphenyl propargylic silyl ether derivatives 1,2‐hydride shift onto carbene subsequent Mukaiyama aldol cyclization was discovered.

Abstract A facile, site‐selective, and divergent approach to construct 2‐aminopyrroles quinoline‐fused polyazaheterocycles enabled by a simple gold(III) catalyst from ynamides anthranils under mild reaction conditions is described. This one‐pot strategy uses readily available starting materials, proceeds in highly step‐ atom‐economical manner, with broad substrate scope scale‐up potential. The key element for success this tandem catalyst‐directed preferred quenching of the situ generated gold carbene intermediates nucleophilic benzyl/2‐furylmethyl moiety on as an alternative known C−H annulation leading indoles.

The generation of metal carbenes from readily available alkynes represents a significant advance in carbene chemistry. However, most these transformations are based on the use noble-metal catalysts and successful examples such an asymmetric version still very scarce. Here copper-catalyzed enantioselective cascade cyclization N-propargyl ynamides is reported, enabling practical atom-economical construction diverse chiral polycyclic pyrroles generally good to excellent yields with wide substrate scope enantioselectivities (up 97:3 e.r.). Importantly, this protocol first diyne cyclization. Moreover, mechanistic studies revealed that donor/donor copper presumably involved 1,5-diyne cyclization, which distinctively different related gold catalysis, thus it constitutes novel way for carbenes.
