Abstract
In the presence of a stoichiometric amount of Ni(0) complex,
allenyl aldehydes smoothly reacted with carbon dioxide at an ambient
temperature and pressure in a regioselective manner. The reaction
involves an intramolecular cyclization of aldehyde and allene
moieties to afford cyclic carboxylic acid derivatives having a hydroxyl
group.
Key words
allenes - aldehydes - carboxylic acid - cyclization - nickel

9 Oxidation of the mixture of trans- and cis-3a afforded the corresponding ketone as
the sole product in high yield.
10 Semmelhack reported a similar transformation
involving an intramolecular nucleophilic addition of π-allylnickel bromide
intermediate to aldehyde that formed a seven-membered ring fused
with α-methylene-γ-lactone. The cis-stereoselectivity
observed in Semmelhack’s example shows good accordance
with our results: Semmelhack MF.
