Terpenoids derivatives containing geminal ethynyl and allyloxy groups are easily prepared from the corresponding ketones and aldehydes. The catalytic system generated in situ from [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2, 1,3-bis(mesityl)imidazolinium chloride and cesium carbonate is able to transform these substrates into a new class of terpenoids via cycloisomerisation of the enyne structure.
