Aryne distortion model P character Less elctronegative = more stabilize hybridisation : More p character = LUMO lower Guitiàn. Synlett 1998, 157. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 9132-9135. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2010, 132, 1267-1269.

Derivatizations of pyridyne adducts Reductive cleavage SIPr-HCl : 1,3-Bis-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolinium chloride / TMDSO : Tetramethyldisiloxane First example of a reductive sulfamate cleavage
Derivatizations of pyridyne adducts Using synthetic handles Suzuki–Miyaura coupling / Buchwald–Hartwig amination / Ni Kumada–Corriu coupling / Ni Sulfamate amination
Conclusion First general method to control the 3,4-pyridyne regioselectivity Versatile synthetic handles were used as directing groups Improvement of the post-transformation of the sulfamate moiety needed Further validation of the aryne distortion model as a predictive tools for the regioselectivity on hetaryne This work should promote the use of pyridyne in total synthesis and in pharmaceutical industries
