(Chemical Equation Presented) Atom-economical carbocyclization reactions of ω-iodo-1-alkynes and 1,ω-diiodo-1-alkynes to give products with incorporation of iodine atoms is described. Cycloisomerization of 2-(2-propynyloxy)ethyl iodides is initiated by a catalytic amount of LDA to give 3-(iodomethylene)tetrahydrofurans in high yields. Upon treatment of with a catalytic amount of 1-hexynyllithium, 1ω-diiodo-1-alkynes efficiently undergo cycloisomerization to give (diiodomethylene)cycloalkanes. The diiodomethylene products are also obtained by iodine atom-transfer-type cyclization of ω-iodo-1-alkynes, using 1-iodo-1-hexyne as an external iodine atom source. Bromine atom-transfer and proton-transfer cyclization proceed as well by employing 1-bromo-1-octyne and 1-octyne, respectively. These reactions are proposed to proceed through a carbenoid-chain process involving exo-cyclization of the lithium acetylide intermediates to give Li,I-alkylidene carbenoids. It is shown that the exo-cyclization proceeded stereospecifically through inversion of the stereochemistry at the electrophilic carbon.

(Formula presented) Treatment of terminal alkynes bearing a remote leaving group with MNR2 (M = Li, Na, K) gives bicyclo[n.3.0]-1-alkenes (n = 3, 4). The tandem cyclization proceeds through a mechanism involving exo-cyclization of an alkynylmet
