A catalytic phenylation reaction of α,β-unsaturated acylazoliums with in-situ-generated phenolates was developed. A combination of N-heterocyclic carbene and potassium ion cooperatively catalyzed the generation of α,β-unsaturated acylazoliums and phenolates from α,β-unsaturated phenolic esters for the efficient [3+3] annulation, which involves a dearomatization–rearomatization process. The approach gives good yields and excellent regioselectivities, and the products could be easily converted into high-value polycyclic derivatives. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that the potassium ion plays a vital role in this reaction.

In polyphosphoric acid (PPA), various phenyl-substituted cinnamates react to give 4-phenyl-3,4-dihydrocoumarins, flavanones or 3-phenylindanone owing to the nature of the substituents on the phenyl moiety.
