An enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed β-protonation through the orchestration of three distinct organocatalysts has been developed. This cooperative catalyst system enhances both yield and selectivity, compared to only the NHC-catalyz

Mg-promoted reduction of ethyl cinnamate (1a) in the presence of carbon dioxide gave a mixture of β-carboxylated compound 2a and α,β-dicarboxylated compound 3a. Similar reductive carboxylation of 1a followed by acidic decarboxylation of one of the two geminal carboxyl groups of the generated 3a and esterification afforded selective formation of diethyl phenylsuccinate (2a) in good yield.
