The Nazarov cyclization of divinyl ketones with an ester at the β-position was examined with particular reference to where the cyclic double bond forms. We observed unprecedented regioselectivity, dictated by the subtle substitution patterns at the α-position and alkene geometry of α,β and mostly, this selectivity is regardless of substitutions at α′- and β′-positions. The major implications of these observations are an aromatic group at the α-position with E-olefin geometry provides a cyclopentenone in which the double bond is not in conjugation with an ester, whereas Z-olefin provides a cyclopentenone in which the double bond is in conjugation with an ester; and divinyl ketones bearing an ester group at the β-position and an alkyl group at the α-position with E-olefin geometry provide a cyclopentenone in which the double bond is in conjugation with the ester.

A new regioselective approach to the synthesis of α-aryl enones is reported. This represents an important application of the Kuwajima-Urabe protocol toward the synthesis of this simple albeit complex functional array. Several α-aryl enones were synthesized by the palladium catalyzed arylation of triethylsilylenol ethers of enones with high regioselectivity and broad scope, utilizing sterically encumbered electron-rich phosphine ligands to drive the reaction.
