2,3-Dimethyl-1,3-butadiene and cyclic dienes react with β-iodoenones (RI: 3-Iodo-2-cyclohexen-1-one, 5,5-dimethyl-3-iodo-2-cyclohexen-1-one and 3-iodo-2-cyclopenten-1-one) in the presence of Zn and catalytic amount of NiBr2 to afford the corresponding homo 1,4-addition products in good yields. For 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene, only the products RCH2C(CH3)=C(CH3)CH2R with Z geometry were observed. For cyclic dienes, the products observed are RCHCH=CHCHR(CH2)(n)CH2 in which the two alkenyl substituents R are cis to each other.

An environmentally benign approach for the synthesis of vinylogous esters from 1,3-diketone and its reverse reaction under continuous-flow has been developed with alcohols in the presence of inexpensive Amberlyst-15 as a catalyst. This methodology is highly selective and general for a range of cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds which gives a library of linear alkylated and arylated vinylogous esters in good to excellent yield under solvent and metal free condition. Furthermore, the long-time experiment in a continuous-flow up to 40 h afforded 8.0 g of the vinylogous ester with turnover number (TON) = 28.6 and turnover frequency (TOF) = 0.715 h-1 using Amberlyst-15 as a catalyst. Furthermore, a continuous-flow sequential transetherification of vinylogous esters with various alcohols has been achieved in high yield. Reversibly, this vinylogous ester was deprotected or hydrolyzed into ketone using environmentally benign water as a solvent and Amberlyst-15 as a catalyst under continuous-flow process.
Lewis Acid Catalyzed Enantioselective Photochemical Rearrangements on the Singlet Potential Energy Surface

The oxadi-methane rearrangement of 2,4-cyclohexadienones to bicyclic ketones was found to proceed with high enantioselectivity (92-97% ee) in the presence of catalytic amounts of a chiral Lewis acid (15 examples, 52-80% yield). A notable feature of the transformation is the fact that it proceeds on the singlet hypersurface and that no triplet intermediates are involved. Rapid racemic background reactions were therefore avoided, and the catalyst loading could be kept low (10 mol %). Computational studies suggest that the enantioselectivity is determined within a Lewis acid bound singlet intermediate via a conical intersection. The utility of the method was demonstrated by a concise synthesis of the natural product trans-chrysanthemic acid.
