The reaction of 6,7-dihydroindolizin-8(5H)-one and an aromatic aldehyde yielded (E)-7-(arylmethylene)-6,7-dihydroindolizin-8(5H)-ones which underwent addition of bromoform in the presence of magnesium under N2 to give a novel series of 3-aryl-2,2-dibromo-5′H-spiro[cyclopropane-1,7′-indolizin]-8′(6′H)-one derivatives. The structures of the products were established by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR spectroscopy and mass spectra.

Magnesium-mediated reductive carboxylation of p-QMs with CO2 via an Umpolung strategy has been developed, which can be used for the preparation of various aryl acetic acids. This protocol featured high atom economy, mild conditions, and operational simplicity. The creation of this Umpolung carboxylation of p-QMs will unprecedentedly extend the application of p-QMs to nucleophilic reagents.

The conjugate addition of bromoform with 2-aryliene-2,3-dihydro-1 H -pyrrolizin-1-ones in the presence of magnesium afforded novel 2,2-dibromo-3-arylspiro[cyclopropane-1,2′-pyrrolizin]-1′(3′ H )-ones in moderate yield. The structures of all the products were characterized thoroughly by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, infrared spectroscopy, and mass spectrum.
