Palladium-catalyzed oxidative 6-exo-trig cyclization of 1,6-enynes: facile synthesis of bicyclo[4.1.0]heptan-5-ones

Abstract

We here describe a new palladium-catalyzed oxidative 6-exo-trig cyclization of 1,6-enynes at room temperature using tBuONO as an oxidant for the synthesis of 3-bicyclo[4.1.0]heptan-5-ones. This cascade strategy involves the hydration, cyclization and cyclopropanation sequence, and represents a new transition-metal-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of 1,6-enynes in a 6-exo-trig fashion.
