The samarium diiodide promoted addition of α-halo-α,β-unsaturated esters to
carbonyl compounds led to (Z)-2-(1-hydroxyalkyl)-2,3-alkenoates in
good yields and very high stereoselectivity. A mechanism is proposed to
explain this transformation.

Various
ketones as the electrophiles react in a one pot three-component coupling with an aluminum allenoate
intermediate derived from ethyl propiolate and alluminium iodide to yield β-iodo Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts with high
yield and excellent Z-stereoselectivity.

A nickel(0)-catalyzed coupling of α-olefins and isocyanates in the
presence of an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand proceeds preferentially at the 2-position of
the olefin to provide α,β-unsaturated amides. N-tert-butyl amide products can be converted to the
corresponding primary amides under acidic conditions.

A nucleophile-catalyzed asymmetric [3+2] cycloaddition of allenes with
enones is described. The method has also been applied to reactions of
trisubstituted olefins, thereby generating quartenary and tertiary
stereocenters.
