motifs, in particular, chiral fluorine molecules with two contiguous stereogeniccenters, has attracted much interest in research due to the limited number of methods available for their preparation. Herein, we report an atom-economical and highlystereoselective synthesis of chiral fluorine molecules with two contiguous stereogeniccenters via azabicyclo iridium-oxazoline-phosphine-catalyzed hydrogenation

of cinnamate esters has been carried out by cathodic reduction of CC bond in an undivided cell equipped with Mg sacrificial anode and using MeCN saturated with CO2 as solvent. The yields and the ratio of mono- and dicarboxylicacids are strongly affected by various factors: cathodic material, current, charge, and temperature. The highest yield (78.9%) was obtained starting from ethyl cinnamate. Cyclic

An enantioselective N-hetetoeyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed beta-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-catalyzed process. This new method allows for the,efficient conversion of a large scope of aryl-oxobutenoates to highly enantioenriched succinate derivatives and demonstrates the benefits of combining different activation modes in organocatalysis.

AbstractIsomeric mixed dialkyl phenylsuccinates, PhCH(COOR)CH2COOR′, undergo a highly specific elimination of ROH under electron impact. A deuterium‐labelling study showed that the hydrogen atom from the benzylic position 2 is abstracted in this process. These results suggest the occurrence of a ‘hidden’ hydrogen migration of the benzylic hydrogen atom to the carbonylic oxygen of the remote ester group, followed by the elimination of ROH from the adjacent ester group with the involvement of that hydrogen. Alkoxyl group migrations resulting in the formation of [PhCHOR]+ and [PhCHOR′]+ ions are less specific, although the migration of the remote R′O˙ is significantly preferred in all the pairs of isomers examined. Mechanisms are suggested for the formation of the two ions.
