ABSTRACT: The Dawson-type polyoxometalate (POM) [P(2)V(3)W(15)O(62)](9-) is a prototype for inclusion of carbonyls of amides, ureas, carbamates, and thiocarbamates into polyoxometallic structures. The carbonyl-inserted POMs catalyze the oxidation of sulfides. Chemoselectivity depends primarily on the proton content of the POM, but it is also influenced by the organic substituent.

ABSTRACT: A new strategy involving Ugi-Smiles coupling followed by ring-closure metathesis is described herein for the preparation of pyrimidine-fused heterocyclic scaffolds. The scope of this sequence is presented in relation with the heteroatom effect observed in the Ugi-Smiles coupling.

ABSTRACT: The use of Smiles rearrangement in Ugi- and Passerini-type couplings with electron-deficient phenols allows very straightforward multicomponent formation of O-aryl- and N-arylamides. Best yields were observed with the highly activated o- and p-nitrophenols, salicylic derivatives giving adducts in lower yields. The scope of these new reactions is further increased by the successful couplings of heterocyclic phenols such as hydroxypyridines and hydroxypyrimidines.

ABSTRACT: Herein, we wish to report a new three-component formation of heterocyclic scaffolds based on a one-pot process from simple phenols. The key step of this procedure involves an ortho-quinone methide formation from Mannich adducts under alkylative conditions. The transient o-quinone methide has been trapped in situ with indole and diketone using lithium perchlorate as catalyst. The interest of this procedure has been furthermore demonstrated by a new three-component aminobenzofuran formation from phenols, aldehydes and isocyanides.

ABSTRACT: New heterocyclic scaffolds can be easily prepared by the coupling of heteroaromatic phenols (pyridines, pyrimidines) with carbonyl compounds, amines, and isocyanides. This transformation related to the Ugi reaction probably involves a Smiles rearrangement. The scope of this methodology is further extended by the successful use of heterocyclic thiols to form highly functionalized thioamides.
