      The Diels–Alder reaction is not limited to 1,3-dienes. Many cycloadditions of enynes and a smaller number of examples with 1,3-diynes have been reported. These “dehydro”-Diels–Alder cycloadditions are one class of dehydropericyclic reactions which have ...

      The Journal of Organic Chemistry2011 76 (5), 1212-1227

      A direct, concise, and atom-economical synthetic method for the generation of fused indoles, using a gold-catalyzed cascade cyclization of diynes, has been developed. The reaction gave various fused indoles, such as aryl-annulated[a]carbazoles, ...

    • Cyano Diels−Alder and Cyano Ene Reactions. Applications in a Formal [2 + 2 + 2] Cycloaddition Strategy for the Synthesis of Pyridines

      Takeo Sakai and Rick L. Danheiser
      Journal of the American Chemical Society2010 132 (38), 13203-13205

      Two metal-free, formal [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition strategies for the construction of polycyclic pyridine derivatives are described that proceed via pericyclic cascade mechanisms featuring the participation of unactivated cyano groups as enophile and ...

      Journal of the American Chemical Society2010 132 (32), 11039-11041

      A formal, metal-free, [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition strategy is described based on a cascade of two pericyclic processes. The first step involves an intramolecular propargylic ene reaction of a 1,6-diyne to generate a vinylallene, which then reacts in an ...

    • Preparation of Tethered Aldehyde Ynoates and Ynones by Ring Fragmentation of Cyclic γ-Oxy-β-hydroxy-α-diazo Carbonyls

      Ali Bayir, Cristian Draghici and Matthias Brewer
      The Journal of Organic Chemistry2010 75 (2), 296-302

      Cyclic γ-oxy-β-hydroxy-α-diazo carbonyls undergo Lewis acid induced ring fragmentation to provide either ynoates or ynones tethered to an aldehyde, ketone, or ester. The fragmentation precursors are convenient to prepare by adding lithiated α-diazo ...
