RESUMEN
Lewis base-promoted annulation reactions with MBHADs have emerged as a key platform for the construction of functionalized carbo- and heterocycles. MBHADs, which are economical and readily available, exert diverse and amazing reactivity when reacted with a wide range of electrophiles. A variety of carbo- and heterocycles, most of which are predominant in natural products and pharmaceuticals, could be constructed with high efficiency. This tutorial review will describe these annulation reactions, with a special emphasis on recent work regarding diverse reactivities of MBHADs.

Inspired by the high affinity of copper with DNA and RNA, a uracil-copper catalytic system was developed to promote ring-opening allylation of cyclopropanols with allylic alcohols under water-tolerant conditions. A new C-OH bond-breaking model can well resolve the trade-off between the need for acidic activators for C(allyl)-OH bond cleavage and the demand for strong basic conditions for generating homoenolates. Therefore, Morita-Baylis-Hillman alcohols, rather than their pre-activated versions, could be incorporated directly into dehydrative cross-coupling with cyclopropanols delivering water as the only by-product. A variety of functionalized δ,ε-unsaturated ketones were obtained in good-to-high yield with high E-selectivity.
RESUMEN
We have developed an efficient method that employs organophotoredox-catalyzed relay Grob fragmentation to facilitate the smooth ring-opening allylation of cyclic alcohols in an environmentally friendly manner. This protocol directly incorporates a wide spectrum of cyclic alcohols and activated allylic acetates into the cross-coupling reaction, eliminating the need for metal catalysts. The process yields a variety of distally unsaturated ketones with good to excellent outcomes and stereoselectivity, while acetic acid is the sole byproduct.

This catalytic system suppressed the competitive symmetrical bis-allylation process and guaranteed the desired unsymmetrical bis-allylation with high chemoselectivity. A wide range of conjugated dienes and allylic alcohols were tolerated well in this transformation, and diverse 1,6-dienes were obtained with high efficiency.

A highly efficient Pd/Ca catalytic system for the directly dehydrative cross-coupling of allylic alcohols with terminal alkynes was developed. This calcium salt cocatalyst facilitates the oxidative addition of the palladium catalyst (1 mol %) to the C-OH bond.

This proposed mechanism is also supported by density functional theory calculations. An anticancer agent was prepared from inexpensive starting materials on a 10 g scale.
