A facile route to polysubstituted 2-pyrones from readily available 2-acylcyclopropane-1-aryl-1-carboxylates mediated by TfOH is reported. The strongly donating 1-aryl group is important for directing the C-C bond cleavage of the donor-acceptor cyclopropane ring, which then leads to the formation of the 2-pyrone ring through lactonization.

1,2-Disubstituted alkenes such as vinyl arenes, vinyl silanes, and vinyl boronates are among the most versatile building blocks that can be found in every sector of chemical science. We herein report a noble-metal-free method of accessing such olefins through a photo-induced decarboxylative Heck-type coupling using alkyl carboxylic acids, one of the most ubiquitous building blocks, as the feedstocks. This transformation was achieved in the absence of external oxidants through the synergistic combination of an organo photo-redox catalyst and a cobaloxime catalyst, with H2 and CO2 as the only byproducts. Both control experiments and DFT calculations supported a radical-based mechanism, which eventually led to the development of a selective three-component coupling of aliphatic carboxylic acids, acrylates, and vinyl arenes. More than 90 olefins across a wide range of functionalities were effectively synthesized with this simple protocol.

Pepsin from porcine gastric mucosa was used as a sustainable and environmentally friendly biocatalyst in the domino Knoevenagel/Michael/Michael reaction for the synthesis of spirooxindole derivatives in methanol. A wide range of isatins and α,β-unsaturated ketones reacting with malononitrile provided the corresponding products in yields of up to 99% with diastereoselectivities of up to >99:1 dr. This pepsin-catalyzed domino reaction provided a novel case of enzyme catalytic promiscuity.
