A formal [4 + 1] cycloaddition of 1,3-dienyl beta-keto esters has been developed. This two step process involves Pd(II)-catalyzed intramolecular cyclopropanation to produce vinylcyclopropanes and a subsequent mild vinylcyclopropane-cyclopentene rearrangement promoted by MgI(2). The cyclopropanation method notably requires the use of Mg(ClO(4))(2), presumably to facilitate keto-enol tautomerization
