A series of novel 3-aryl-4-hydroxy-2(5H) furanone-acrylate hybrids were designed and synthesized based on the natural butenolides and acrylates scaffolds. The structures of the prepared compounds were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and the bioactivity of the target compounds against twelve phytopathogenic fungi was investigated. The preliminary in vitro antifungal activity screening showed that most of the target compounds had moderate inhibition on various pathogenic fungi at the concentration of 100 mg·L?1, and presented broad-spectrum antifungal activities. Further studies also indicated that compounds 7e and 7k still showed some inhibitory activity against Pestallozzia theae, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Gibberella zeae on rape plants at lower concentrations, which could be optimized as a secondary lead for further research.

Dehydroxymethylation, the direct conversion of alcohol feedstocks as alkyl synthons containing one less carbon atom, is an unconventional and underexplored strategy to exploit the ubiquity and robustness of alcohol materials. Under mild and redox-neutral reaction conditions, utilizing inexpensive cerium catalyst, the photocatalytic dehydroxymethylation platform has been furnished. Enabled by ligand-to-metal charge transfer catalysis, an alcohol functionality has been reliably transferred into nucleophilic radicals with the loss of one molecule of formaldehyde. Intriguingly, we found that the dehydroxymethylation process can be significantly promoted by the cerium catalyst, and the stabilization effect of the fragmented radicals also plays a significant role. This operationally simple protocol has enabled the direct utilization of primary alcohols as unconventional alkyl nucleophiles for radical-mediated 1,4-conjugate additions with Michael acceptors. A broad range of alcohols, from simple ethanol to complex nucleosides and steroids, have been successfully applied to this fragment coupling transformation. Furthermore, the modularity of this catalytic system has been demonstrated in diversified radical-mediated transformations including hydrogenation, amination, alkenylation, and oxidation.

A RhIII-catalyzed intramolecular oxidative cross-coupling between double bonds for the synthesis of macrolides is described. Under the optimized reaction conditions, macrocycles containing a diene moiety can be formed in reasonable yields and with excellent chemo- and stereoselectivity. This method provides an efficient approach to synthesize macrocyclic compounds containing a 1,3-conjugated diene structure.
