La cyclisation intramoleculaire de composes diyniques a ete effectuee en utilisant l'une des combinaisons de reactifs: Cp 2 TiCl 2 /PMePh 2 /Na(Hg) ou Cp 2 ZrCl 2 /Mg/HgCl 2
The ruthenium-catalyzed hydrocarbamoylative cyclization of 1,6-diynes with formamides afforded exocyclic-diene-type α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated amides with 100% stereoselectivity. A plausible mechanism involving ruthenium hydride species is proposed to explain the experimental results. Some control experiments, performed using DMF-d7 and/or D2O, corroborate the proposed mechanism.
A Combined Transition-Metal-Catalyzed and Photopromoted Process: Synthesis of 2,3-Fused 4-Phenylnaphthalen-1-yl Carboxylates from 1,7-Diaryl-1,6-diynes
2,3‐Fused 4‐phenylnaphthalen‐1‐yl carboxylates were synthesized in a step‐ and atom‐economical manner using a ruthenium‐catalyzed hydrocarboxylative cyclization of 1,7‐diaryl‐1,6‐diynes and subsequent oxidative photocyclization. The scope of this novel two‐step process was demonstrated by the construction of diverse structures from substrates with various tethers and terminal aryl groups. Late‐stage
