Dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-ones (DHQOs) represent a class of valuable bioactive compounds with six-membered nitrogen-containing heterocyclic structures. The development simple, mild, and efficient synthetic methods has been widely considered by chemists. In this review, we have summarized series different strategies for the synthesis DHQOs via catalytic annulation α,β-unsaturated N-arylamides in pas...

An efficient and convenient synthesis of benzoxazole/benzothiazole-substituted esters in a one-pot strategy is reported. In this investigation, selective construction C-N C-S bonds via simple addition performed. Thus, using substituted 2-aminophenols/2-aminobenzenethiols, TMTD (tetramethylthiuram disulfide) α,β-unsaturated as starting substrates, can be selectively constructed by means the Mich...
