Abstract

Abstract The Smit-Caple DSAC Pauson-Khand cyclization of a series of N-protected allyl propargyl amines in the absence of oxygen gave rise to formation of the saturated azabicyclo [3.3. 0] octanones in excellent yields. Standard cyclization in air gave mixtures of saturated and unsaturated ketones.
