We present a novel electrochemical dicarboxylation of epoxides with CO2, characterized by the cleavage of two C-O single bonds. Not only are vinyl epoxides viable, but cyclic carbonates also serve as effective substrates, facilitating the synthesis of E-configured adipic and octanedioic acids with high chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity. The synthetic practicality is further highlighted by the diverse functionalizations of the resulting multifunctional diacids.

A dual photoredox/cobalt-catalyzed protocol for chemo-, regio-, diastereo- and enantioselective reductive coupling of 1,1-disubstituted allenes and cyclobutenes through chemo-, regio-, diastereo- and enantioselective oxidative cyclization followed by stereoselective protonation promoted by a chiral phosphine-cobalt complex is presented. Such process represents an unprecedented reaction pathway for cobalt catalysis that enables selective transformation of the less sterically congested alkenes of 1,1-disubstituted allenes with cyclobutenes, incorporating a broad scope of tetrasubstituted alkenes into the cyclobutane scaffolds in up to 86% yield, >98:2 chemo- and regioselectivity, >98:2 dr and >99.5:0.

Ionic liquids have been utilized in numerous significant applications within the field of chemistry, particularly in organic chemistry, due to their unique physical and chemical properties. In the realm of asymmetric transition-metal-catalyzed transformations, chiral ionic-liquid-supported ligands and their corresponding transition-metal complexes have facilitated these processes in unconventional solvents, especially ionic liquids and water. These innovative reaction systems enable the recycling of transition-metal catalysts while producing optically active organic molecules with comparable or even higher levels of chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity compared to their parent catalysts.

The application of rearrangement reactions offers opportunities for the efficient construction of complex molecules that are challenging to obtain through conventional synthetic methods. However, the development of radical-mediated rearrangements has lagged far behind that of ionic-type rearrangements, due to the uncontrollability of radical species. Along with the recent renaissance in radical chemistry, radical-mediated functional group migration (FGM) reactions provide a versatile platform for the selective incorporation of functional groups across different molecular distances, enabling the construction of intricate molecular architectures.
