An acid catalysed, cascade process for the construction of angularly fused polycyclic phthalides from isobenzofurans under transition metal free conditions has been reported. This process is very general for diverse gem-disubstituted isobenzofuran substrates. Control experiments supported the mechanism as the nucleophilic attack of the carboxylate onto the acid activated furan ring for the simultaneous ring closing-ring opening cascade followed by dehydration. This method serves as a greener alternative for the synthesis of angularly fused polycyclic phthalides.

This paper reports a new method for the generation of substituted 1,3-enynes, whose synthesis by other methods could be a challenge. The dehydrative decarboxylative cascade coupling reaction of propargyl alcohol with alkyl peroxides is enabled by an iron catalyst and alkylating reagents. Primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl groups can be introduced into 1,3-enynes, affording various substituted 1,3-enynes in moderate to good yields. Mechanistic studies suggest the involvement of a radical-polar crossover pathway.
