Summary: The Hantzsch reaction is a well-known multi-component reaction for synthesizing 1,4-dihydropyridines, and microwave irradiation has been successfully utilized as a green energy source to promote this organic transformation. Literature survey shows that construction and aromatization of 1,4-DHPs can be effectively carried out under microwave irradiation in solution or dry media.

Summary: In this study, a versatile approach for endocyclic ring opening of bicyclic vinylcyclopropanes triggered by Heck arylations was reported. The key step of this transformation involves a beta-C-elimination allowing the ring expansion of various cyclopropanated compounds. Additionally, gem-disubstituted cyclopropanated furans exhibited unexpected behavior by giving diastereoselectively asymmetrically substituted dienes. Mechanistic studies suggest a facile beta-C-elimination with a concomitant shift of Pd along the cyclopropane moiety as a competitive pathway in the Heck reaction.
