Abstract
The palladium-catalyzed tandem cyclization-coupling reaction of conjugated enynes having a stabilizing carbon nucleophile with aryl iodides and vinyl halides or triflates produced stereodefined, functionalized five- and six-membered 1,3-bis-exocyclic dienes in moderate to good yields. These stereodefined dienes proved to be versatile substrates for the preparation of various polycyclic products through subsequent Diels-Alder, intramolecular Friedel-Crafts or thermal electrocyclization reactions.

7 The palladium(0)-diphenylphosphinoethane was preformed by heating Pd(OAc)2 (5 mol%) and dppe (5 mol%) in the presence of 1-heptene (10 mol%, THF 50 °C) until a homogeneous dark red solution was obtained.
The palladium(0) catalyst generated in situ by reduction of PdCl2
(PPh3 )2 with n -BuLi has been found particularly effective in related carbopalladation reactions:
