2-Bromo-1,6-dienes are catalytically cyclised to give conjugated 5-membered bis-exocyclic dienes and 6-membered mono-exocyclic dienes by rhodium and palladium catalysts, the specificity for a 5- or 6-membered ring being a function of substrate, catalyst,
THE REGIOSELECTIVITY OF RHODIUM AND PALLADIUM-CATALYSED CYCLISATIONS OF 2-BROMO-1,6- AND 1,7-DIENES

2-bromo-1,6-dienes are catalytically cyclised to a mixture of the corresponding 3,4-bis(methylene)cyclopentane and 5-methylenecyclohex-3-ene.Wilkinson's catalyst shows good selectivity for the 5-membered ring product whilst palladium catalysts, in general, show little selectivity.Addition of tetraethylammonium salts, especially the chloride, allow the palladium catalysed reactions to be carried out at 30 deg C in good yield and with high selectivity for the 5-membered ring. 2-Bromo-1,7-dienes are cyclised regiospecifically to 6-membered rings by the same catalysts although some double bond isomerisation also occurs.The mechanism of the catalytic cyclisations is discussed.The 3,4-bis(methylene) cyclopentanes undergo facile Diels-Alder reactions.
RHODIUM (1) CATALYSED REGIOSPECIFIC CYCLISATION OF 1,6-ENYNES TO METHYLENECYCLOHEX-2-ENES
Grigg, Ronald,Stevenson, Paul,Worakun, Tanachat
, p. 4967 - 4972 (2007/10/02)
1,6-Enynes are cyclised regiospecifically by 5 mol percent of Wilkinson's catalyst in acetonitrile at 80 deg C to give the corresponding methylenecyclohex-2-enes usually in goog yield (62-83percent).Terminal substitution on either the alkene
