Abstract

Alkynal Allylation Benzenes Catalysis Tandem reaction
Treatment of alkynals with 2-substituted allylsilanes and PPh 3 AuCl/AgOTf (5/3 mol%) catalyst led to formation of 1,3-disubstituted benzenes efficiently. This reaction sequence comprises an initial allylation of aldehyde, followed by cycloisomerization of enynes; PPh 3 AuOTf is active in both steps. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
