A new synthetic route was developed via the nucleophilic addition of lithium alkynylide to 1-arylsulfonyl cyclopropanol 1 to afford 1-alkynyl cyclopropanol, which then reacted with aryl iodide to construct trisubstituted cross-conjugated dienones through a palladium-catalyzed process, where the key steps included the regioselective carbopalladation of arylpalladium(II) intermediate across the triple

The reaction tolerates terminal alkynes as well as alkyl, aryl, and halo-substitution at the acetylenic position and stereoselectively provides a single olefin isomer. The gold(I)-catalyzed rearrangement is stereospecific with regard to substituents on the ring, thus providing a practical method for the stereoselective synthesis of highly substituted cyclopentanones from cyclopropanols. The reaction stereoselectively
A convenient new method was developed to prepare two types of vinyl cyclopropane derivatives through gold-catalyzed cyclization of 1-alkynyl cyclopropyl tert-butyl carbonates 2. Different from the previous reported 5-exo-dig route, the 6-endo-dig addition is the preferred pathway to provide six-membered cyclized carbonates. Two factors, including stereoelectronic effect and steric effect might affect
