Abstract
The Pummerer rearrangement, also called the Pummerer reaction, and its variants (Pummerer-type transformations) are extremely useful tools in organic synthesis. The chapter is divided into six different sections. The first four describe the five types of Pummerer reactions, then a few examples of cascades or tandem processes with the participation of the Pummerer reaction are presented. The penultimate section is used to highlight recent applications in selenium-Pummerer variants, and finally, a summary and outlook is provided. The types of Pummerer reactions covered here are: classical Pummerer reaction, vinylogous Pummerer reaction, interrupted and additive Pummerer reactions, connective Pummerer reaction, and Pummerer rearrangement in multiple-reaction processes. The examples presented herein showcase the enormous variety of structures that can be obtained by Pummerer chemistry.
