An organocatalytic strategy for the direct carboxylation of terminal alkynes with CO2 has been developed. The combined use of a bifunctional organocatalyst and Cs2CO3 resulted in a robust catalytic system for the preparation of a range of propiolic acid derivatives in high yields with broad substrate scope using CO2 at atmospheric pressure under mild temperatures (60 °C). This work has demonstrated that this organocatalytic method offers a competitive alternative to metal catalysis for the carboxylation of terminal alkynes and CO2. In addition, this protocol was suitable for the three-component carboxylation of terminal alkynes, alkyl halides, and CO2.

Rh/bisphosphine?thiourea ligand (ZhaoPhos)-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of (Z)-β-substituted-β-boryl-α,β-unsaturated esters was successfully developed, furnishing a variety of chiral β-borylated carboxylic esters with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% yield and >99% ee). The gram-scale asymmetric hydrogenation was performed efficiently in the presence of only 0.05 mol% (S/C=2 000) catalyst loading with full conversion, 99% yield and 99% ee. Moreover, the hydrogenation product was easily converted to other versatile synthetic intermediates, such as methyl (S)-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoate and methyl (S)-3-(furan-2-yl)-3-phenylpropanoate.

The highly efficient Ni-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of β-boronic ester substituted-α,β-unsaturated carboxylic esters was successfully developed using (S,S)-Ph-BPE as the ligand. A series of chiral β-borylated carboxylic esters were obtained with high yields (94%-99% yields) and excellent enantioselectivities (89%-99% ee). The gram-scale asymmetric hydrogenation with a low catalyst loading (0.25 mol %) and synthetic transformation of hydrogenation product demonstrated the great synthetic utility of this methodology.
