Rhodium-catalyzed tandem heterocyclization and carbonylative [(3+2)+1] cyclization of diyne-enones

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/ol102920f

A simple and highly efficient rhodium-catalyzed tandem heterocyclization and carbonylative [(3+2)+1] cyclization reaction of readily available diyne-enone and carbon monoxide was developed, leading to a novel polycyclic furan scaffold. Synthetically usefu
