MoreOver the past few decades, denitrogenation has proven to be an effective method for synthesizing high-value chiral heterocyclic compounds. These compounds find widespread applications in pharmaceutical chemistry, drug development, and natural product synthesis. Denitrogenation demonstrates high activity and can engage in cyclization reactions with olefins, alkynes, carbon-heterocycles, aldehydes, and other reagents. This one-step operation enables the rapid construction of chiral heterocycles such as pyrroles and indoles, significantly shortening complex synthetic pathways. Innovations in chiral ligands, optimization of catalytic systems, and detailed studies on mechanisms have significantly enhanced the enantioselectivity and substrate applicability of denitrogenation reactions. This review highlights recent advancements in the synthesis of chiral heterocycles via denitrogenation reactions and systematically examines the reaction characteristics of various metal catalytic systems.
