title: Intramolecular C - N bond formation under metal-free conditions: synthesis of indolizines.
abstract: Polysubstituted indolizine derivatives are constructed via intramolecular CN bond formation/CH bond cleavage under metal-free conditions. These methods offer straightforward pathways to transform pyridyl chalcones into a variety of indolizines.
