Abstract
An electroreductive carboxylation of propargylic alcohols with CO2 and then workup with TMSCHN2 to construct tetrasubstituted 2,3-allenoates is developed. This method allows the incorporation of an external ester group into the resulting allene system through electroreduction, carboxylation, and deacetoxylation cascades. Mechanistically, electricity on/off experiments and cyclic voltammetry analysis support the preferential generation of the CO2 radical anion or the 3-aryl propargylic acetate radical anion based on the electron nature of the aryl rings.

Abstract
Allenes represent an extremely important class of organic molecules, which, as
a result of their twisted orthogonal π-systems can possess axial chirality. A wide array of
methods for allene synthesis have been reported, such as the substitution of propargylic
electrophiles, isomerization of alkynes and sigmatropic rearrangement. An alternative approach
for the synthesis of allenes is 1,2-elimination of an appropriately substituted precursor.
This mini-review highlights recent examples of 1,2-elimination processes, which
target allenes including both polar and radical processes. The main focus is upon how control
over the stereospecificity (e.g. syn- or anti-) of the 1,2-elimination process can enable
the synthesis of enantioenriched axially chiral allenes. Recent developments in this field
are presented including both enantiospecific and catalytic asymmetric methods.
