A 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU)-catalyzed rearrangement of diarylated secondary propargylic alcohols to give α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds has been developed. The typical 1,3-transposition of oxy functionality, characteristic of Mayer-Schuster rearrangements, is not observed in this case. A broad substrate scope, functional-group tolerance, operational simplicity, complete atom economy, and excellent yields are among the prominent features of the reaction. Additionally, the photophysical properties and crystal-structure-packing behavior of selected compounds were investigated and found to be of interest.

A scalable, one-pot, enantioselective catalytic synthesis of 2-pyrazolines from beta-substituted enones and hydrazines is described. Pivoting on a two-stage catalytic Michael addition/condensation strategy, the use of an aldehyde to generate a suitable hydrazone derivative of the hydrazine was found to be key for curtailing background reactivity and tuning the catalyst-controlled enantioselectivity. The new synthetic method is easy to perform, uses a new and readily prepared cinchona-derived bifunctional catalyst, is broad in scope, and tolerates a range of functionalities with high enantioselectivity (up to >99:1 e.r.). The significant scalability of this methodology was demonstrated with the synthesis of more than 80 grams of a pyrazoline product with 89 % catalyst recovery.

An aerobic photoepoxidation of α,β-unsaturated ketones driven by visible light in the presence of tetramethylguanidine (3b), tetraphenylporphine (H2TPP), and molecular oxygen under mild conditions was revealed. The corresponding α,β-epoxy ketones were obtained in yields of up to 94% in 96 h. The reaction time was shortened to 4.6 h by flow synthesis. The mechanism related to singlet oxygen was supported by experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
