Scope and limitations of the Pd(II)-catalyzed cycloisomerization of functionalized 1,5-hexadienes have been studied. In situ NMR experiments indicate a challenging competition between various reaction pathways. A careful balance between substrate structure, nature of the precatalyst, and reaction conditions was required to gain access to a useful building block for sesquiterpene total synthesis.
