Abstract
The transition-metal-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition
of alkynes is a useful and atom-economical method for the synthesis of
substituted benzenes. This comprehensive review covers the [2+2+2]-cycloaddition
reactions catalyzed by rhodium complexes. Applications of the rhodium-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloaddition
in the synthesis of functional organic compounds are also described.
