Despite the great potential of bio-renewable a-methylene-<a></a><a></a><a>g-butyrolactone</a> (MBL) to produce functional recyclable polyester, the ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of MBL remains as a challenge due to the competing polymerization of the highly reactive exocyclic double bond and the low strained five membered ring. In this contribution, we present the first organocatalytic chemoselective ROP of MBL to exclusively produce recyclable unsaturated polyester by utilizing a phosphazene base/urea binary catalyst. We show that delicate chemoselectivity can be realized by controlling the temperature and using selected urea catalysts. Experimental and theoretical calculations provide mechanistic insights and indicate that the kinetically controlled ROP pathway is favored by using urea with stronger acidity at low temperatures.

The gene cluster of trihazones was identified from Trichoderma harzianum t-22 and heterologously activated in Aspergillus nidualns. The α-KG dependent dioxygenase ThnC was confirmed to catalyze exocyclic double bond formation.

Abstract4-Pyrones bearing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups react with nonstabilized azomethine ylides to form pyrano[2,3-c]pyrrolidines in moderate to good yields. The reaction proceeds chemoselectively as a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the azomethine ylide at the carbon–carbon double bond of the pyrone activated by the electron-withdrawing substituent. The reactivity of 4-pyrones toward azomethine ylides was rationalized by computational studies with the use of reactivity indexes. The pyrano[2,3-c]pyrrolidine moiety could be modified, for example by a ring-opening transformation under the action of hydrazine to provide pyrazolyl-substituted pyrrolidines.
