A new method for constructing quaternary carbon centres: Tandem rhodium-catalysed 1,4-addition/intramolecular cyclisation

The efficient tandem rhodium-catalysed 1,4-addition/cyclisation of 1,1′-alkenes using arylzinc chlorides is described. The simple one-step synthesis of substituted cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone derivatives is performed from acyclic precursors using relatively low catalyst loadings under mild conditions. A new quaternary carbon centre is created during the cyclisation step.
