Abstract

... Synlett 2006(18 ... As isolated yields and catalyst turnover for this process were low, and bicycle 18 was not directly useful for our total synthesis goals ... More specifically, the use of bulky P(t-Bu) 3 ligands in the classical Heck cyclization could favor olefin insertion transition state 20 ...
