We have developed the first catalytic cycloisomerization of 1,6- and 1,7-diynes leading to trienes and vinylpyrroles by using a cationic rhodium(I)/Segphos complex (2.5-10 mol %) and 1,2-cyclohexanedione (100 mol %). 1,2-Cyclohexanedione may effectively occupy vacant coordination sites and thus promote the present cycloisomerization.
