Abstract

Abstract A novel intramolecular hydroacylation of 5-and 6-alkynals leading to α- alkylidenecycloalkanones was accomplished by using cationic a rhodium (I)/BINAP complex. For all cyclizations described, a single (E)-olefin isomer was obtained. At elevated temperature, hydroacylation and double bond migration of 5-and 6-alkynals proceeded in a one-pot reaction to give cycloalkenones. An intramolecular hydroacylation of a 7-alkynal ...
