Book excerpt: This thesis consists in three parts: bibliographic background, copper-catalyzed reactions for synthesis of N-containing compounds, approach to the synthesis of raputindoles.The first part introduces the domino reactions and their applications, then, copper-mediated reactions for construction of C-N bond formation are reviewed including Ullmann, Goldberg and Chan-Lam coupling, oxidative C-H activation/C-N formation, insertion of nitrenes and carbenoids, and hydroamination of multi-C-C bonds. This can be used as guides to design domino reaction. Following these copper-mediated single C-N bond formation reactions, recent developments of copper-catalyzed domino reactions for synthesis of heterocycles are described.The second part can be divided into three sections: 1) synthesis of benzimidazoles, 2) synthesis of imidazoles and 3) synthesis of guanidines. Each section summarizes the existing methods used for their synthesis. Following it, our synthetic work involving copper-catalyzed C-N bond formation domino reactions is discussed in detail. Our objectives include the synthesis of benzimidazoles through copper-catalyzed sequential reaction of benzamidines and boronic acids, synthesis of imidazoles via copper-catalyzed domino reaction of benzamidines and acetylenes, and synthesis of guanidines and 2-aminobenzimidazoles by Cu-catalyzed three-component reaction of cyanamides, boronic acids and amines. These copper-catalyzed domino reactions show high efficiencies from readily available and simple starting materials.The last part is about the total synthesis of raputindoles. The structure and bioactivities of raputindoles and key reactions for the total synthesis of raputindoles are introduced first, the synthetic strategies are then proposed on basis of relative synthetic methods. The key reactions we use for the synthesis of raputindoles are iridium catalyzed [3+2] annulation of o-formylarylboronic acids and 1,3-dienes, Leimgruber-Batcho indole synthesis, transition-metal catalyzed SN2 substitution and alkylborylation-protondeborylation. According to the three strategies we proposed, lots of relative reactions were investigated. The results show that it is possible to synthesize the raputindole molecules based on the iridium catalyzed [3+2] annulation of 2-formylarylboronic acids and 1,3-dienes.
