12 In the presence of [IrCl(cod)]2 without diphosphine ligand, alkyne 1a was consumed within 2 h, but the yield of 2a was low (28%).
13
General Experimental Procedure
[IrCl(cod)]2 (6.7 mg, 0.010 mmol) was placed in a 30 mL two-neck flask under an argon atmosphere, and a xylene solution (0.4 mL) of (S,S)-Me-BPE (5.2 mg, 0.020 mmol) was added. After the mixture was stirred for 5 min at r.t., a xylene solution (0.6 mL) of biphenylene (18.3 mg, 0.12 mmol) and an alkyne (0.10 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at 100 °C, then the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the resulting crude products were purified by TLC to afford a pure cycloadduct.
14 After being stirred for 4 h, cycloadduct 2c was obtained in higher ee of 27% ee. Actually, gradual racemization of 2c was ascertained at 100 °C.
