Abstract
We report the difunctionalization of unactivated, terminal olefins through intermolecular addition of α-bromoketones, -esters, and -nitriles followed by formation of 4- to 6-membered heterocycles with pendant nucleophiles. The reaction can be conducted with alcohols, acids, and sulfonamides as nucleophiles furnishing products bearing 1,4 functional group relationships that offer various handles for further manipulation. Salient features of the transformations are the use of 0.5 mol% of a benzothiazinoquinoxaline organophotoredox catalyst and their robustness with respect to air and moisture. Mechanistic investigations are carried out and a catalytic cycle for the reaction is proposed.

Abstract
One of the important reactions to obtain a new carbon-carbon bond is the Stetter reaction, which is generally via a nucleophilic catalyst like cyanide or thiazolium-NHC catalysts. In particular, 1,4-diketones with very functional properties are obtained by the Stetter reaction with the intermolecular reaction of an aldehyde and an α,β-unsaturated ketone. In this study, we synthesized new derivatives (substituted arenoxy) of 1,4-diketone compounds (2a-2n) with useful features by a new version of the Stetter reaction method. In our work, arenoxy benzaldehyde derivatives with different structures as the Michael donor and methyl vinyl ketone as the Michael acceptor were used for the intermolecular Stetter reaction. The reaction was catalyzed by 3-benzyl-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-methylthiazolium chloride (3b), using triethylamine for the basic medium and dimethyl sulfoxide as the solvent. As a result, some novel arenoxy-substituted 1,4-diketones were gained with good yields at room temperature within 24 h through an intermolecular Stetter reaction. In addition, new furan and pyrrole derivatives were prepared by performing the cyclization reaction with one of the obtained new diketone compounds.

Abstract
The intermolecular Stetter reaction of aromatic aldehydes with 2-bromo-3,3,3-trifluoropropene is achieved by the in situ generated α-trifluoromethyl carbanion catalyst. It not only represents the first example for α-trifluoromethyl carbanion-catalyzed umpolung reaction but also reveals a new protocol for the umpolung of aldehydes. Various useful β-alkoxyl-β-trifluoromethylated ketones were obtained in high yields, which could further convert to attractive bioactive compounds. Mechanism studies indicated an intramolecular 1,4-shift of the hydrogen atom was involved in this reaction.

Abstract
A route for thiocyanation-functionalization of the electron-deficient C═C double bond was developed. Regioselective thiocyanation-etherification of α,β-unsaturated ketones was achieved. The desired products were obtained in moderate to high yields under mild conditions. It was suggested that the nucleophile was activated by the electrophilic thiocyanato reagent, and difunctionalization was achieved through a 1,4-addition/thiocyanation pathway.

Abstract
The development of novel small molecule-based catalysts for organic transformations has increased noticeably in the last two decades. A very recent addition to this particular research area is cyclopropene- and cyclopropenium-based catalysts. At one point in time, particularly in the mid-20th century, much attention was focused on the structural aspects and physical properties of cyclopropene-based compounds. However, a paradigm shift was observed in the late 20th century, and the focus shifted to the synthetic utility of these compounds. In fact, a wide range of cyclopropene derivatives have been found serving as valuable synthons for the construction of carbocycles, heterocycles and other useful organic compounds. In the last few years, the catalytic applications of cyclopropene/cyclopropenium-based compounds have been uncovered and many synthetic protocols have been developed using cyclopropene-based compounds as organocatalysts. Therefore, the main objective of this review is to highlight recent developments in the catalytic applications of cyclopropene-based small molecules in different areas of organocatalysis such as phase-transfer catalysis (PTC), Brønsted base catalysis, hydrogen-bond donor catalysis, nucleophilic carbene catalysis, and electrophotocatalysis developed within the past two decades.
