Graphical Abstract
Open access: Despite the exceptional level of sophistication in cross-coupling chemistry, reactions of substrates that incorporate the leaving group as an integral part into a heterocyclic scaffold are scarce. The title reaction outlines the utility of this reaction format (see scheme; acac=acetylacetonate), provides a convenient entry into stereodefined diene carboxylates, and adds a new chapter to the field of iron catalysis.

- 17[Fe(acac)3] (99.9+ % purity) is the pre-catalyst of choice because it is cheap, non-hygroscopic, and commercially available. While [(tmeda)FeI2] is similarly effective, the use of [(depe)2FeCl2] or [(dppp)FeCl2] basically halted the conversion (<10 %, GC). No reaction was observed in the absence of an iron salt. depe=bis(diethylphosphino)-ethane; dppp=bis(diphenylphosphino)propane; tmeda=N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine.
- 18It is unlikely that trace impurities of copper in [Fe(acac)3] are the actual catalyst because copper leads to 1,4-addition of Grignard reagents to 2-pyrones without ring opening, see: B. Mao, M. Fañanás-Mastral, B. L. Feringa, Org. Lett. 2013, 15, 286–289.
