One-pot double Michael addition/intramolecular aldol reaction/ decarboxylation of 1,2-allenic ketones with cyanoacetate offers an efficient and convenient approach to highly functionalized benzenes. With 2-substituted cyanoacetates, the reaction proceeds via a different tandem process to afford α,β-unsaturated nitriles effectively.

Dess-Martin oxidation followed by the chromatographic workup of crude, terminal propargyl ketones 5 on silica gel directly leads to terminal allenyl ketones 6. When the other substituent on 5 was electron-rich, 7 was observed as side-product. If the other substituent on 5 was electron-poor, the isomeric 1-propynyl ketone 8 was the side-product. Chromatography of the crude propargyl vinyl ketones 10 on silica gel delivers the products of a Nazarov cyclization.

The scope of the palladium-catalyzed cyclization/dimerization of terminal allenyl ketones 1 to the 2,4-disubstituted furans 3 has been investigated. Simplified and improved conditions almost exclusively provided the dimer 3, accompanied by only traces of the easily separable monomer 2. The formation of an isomer of 3, the unconjugated ketone 4, was completeley suppressed. Under these mild conditions, besides the normal functional group tolerance known for palladium-catalyzed reactions, an interesting selectivity was observed with functional groups that are known to react either in palladium-catalyzed reactions or reactions catalyzed by other transition-metals. Thus aryl halides, terminal alkynes, 1,6-enynes, and α-allenic alcohols were tolerated. In the latter example the selective reaction of only one out of two different allenes was achieved. Mechanistic investigation indicated a Pd(II)/Pd(IV)-cycle involving palladium(II)-γ-alkoxyvinylcarbene and furylpalladium(IV) hydride intermediates, although a second pathway for the formation of the dimer 3 which also involves Pd(IV)-intermediates like the 3,4-dimethylenepalladacyclopentane 23 and the 3-methylenepalladacyclobutane-like structure 15 (respectively 25) could not completely be excluded.

A convenient preparation of allenyl aryl ketones was achieved by the Weinreb-modified Grignard reaction of N-methoxy-N-methylamides with propargylmagnesium bromide.On treatment with BF3*OEt2, the allenyl aryl ketones were converted to methylenebenzocyclopentenones via a new 5-endo-mode cyclization.
