Catalytic amounts of the base catalyst DABCO in cooperation with a proton source afford the [4 + 2] cycloadducts of isatins with but-3-yn-2-one in moderate to good yields. Moreover, related plausible mechanisms have been proposed in detail based on control and deuterium labeling experiments.

β-Hydroxyalkylphosphine sulfides undergo [1,3]- or [1,4]-sulfur atom phosphorus-to-carbon migration in the presence of Lewis or Brønsted acids. The direction of sulfur atom migration depends on the type of acid used for the reaction. In the presence of a Brønsted acid, mainly [1,3]-rearrangement is observed, whereas a Lewis acid catalyzes the [1,4]-sulfur migration. To gain insight into the mechanism of these transformations, the stereochemistry of these rearrangements have been tested, along with the conduction of some control experiments and DFT calculations.

<div><p>Ring-opening hydroarylation of cyclopropanes is typically limited to substrates bearing a donor-acceptor motif. Here, the transformation is achieved for monosubstituted cyclopropanes by using catalytic Brønsted acid in hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) solvent, constituting a rare example where such cyclopropanes engage in intermolecular C–C bond formation. Branched products are obtained when electron-rich arylcyclopropanes react with a broad scope of arene nucleophiles in accord with a simple S<sub>N</sub>1-type ring-opening mechanism. In constrast, linear products are obtained when cyclopropylketones react with electron-rich arene nucleophiles. In the latter case, mechanistic experiments and DFT-calculations support a homo-conjugate addition pathway.</p></div>
