文摘

The conversion of propargylic carbonates into allenes via Pd-catalyzed coupling with arylboronic acids, followed by tandem intramolecular Alder-ene cyclization, proceeds with remote diastereocontrol in the formation of indenes possessing two stereogenic elements (stereocenter and chiral axis). Highly configurationally stable atropisomers have been obtained with dr values up to >98:2. The reaction tolerates a range of commercially available functionalized arylboronic acids and allows the creation of C(sp²)–C(sp²) and C(sp²)–C(sp³) bonds in a single operation. Control experiments suggest that synergetic thermal and Pd-catalyzed cyclizations are likely to be involved in the second elementary step.
