Abstract:
A facile synthetic protocol for the preparation of spiro diheterocycles from easily available 2'-aminoacetophenones, isocyanates and 1,4-benzoquinones or quinone monoimines under mild conditions has been developed. This multi-component transformation is characterized by efficient construction of two heterocycles and one valuable quaternary carbon in one pot via an in situ cyclization-respiroannulation strategy. Moreover, this reaction showed a broad substrate scope, and generated diverse five-membered oxaspiros.

Conformation
The simplest example of a diene is 1,3-butadiene, an acyclic conjugated π system. At room temperature, the molecule exists as a mixture of s-cis and s-trans conformers by virtue of rotation around the carbon–carbon single bond. Although the s-trans isomer is...
