Abstract
Catalytic quantities of copper (I) or copper (II) sources catalyze the N-imination of boronic acids and organostannanes through reaction with oxime
  O-carboxylates under non-basic conditions. This method tolerates various functional groups and takes place efficiently using aryl, heteroaryl, and alkenyl boronic acids and
  stannanes.  A simple, modular synthesis of highly substituted pyridines has been achieved by employing a cascade of cross-coupling, electrocyclization, and oxidation reaction starting
  with α, β-unsaturated ketoxime O-pentafluorobenzoates and alkenylboronic acids with catalytic copper. Readily available starting materials, functionality
  tolerance, and diverse substitution patterns in the pyridine ring contribute to the power of this method.  A strategy utilizing N-N bond disconnection and reconnection for indole
  synthesis through a decarboxylation and Fischer indole-like cyclization sequence was proved effective. Further study is required to improve the efficiency of the reaction.
