α-Methylene Cyclic Carbonate as a Conjunctive Agent for Aromatic Aldehydes

α-Methylene cyclic carbonate undervent dacarboxylative cycliaddition to aromatic aldehydes to yield dihydrofuranone derivatives in the presence of a dicationic palladium complex.

Stereoelectronic Control of Intramolecular Michael Addition Reactions

Concepts of stereoelectronic control lead to the conclusion that the 5-endo-trig ring closure of (E)-2-methyl-3-oxo-5-phenylpent-4-en-2-ol should be disfavored.However, the acid-catalyzed ring closure in trifluoroacetic acid occurs readily, suggesting an
