title: One-pot assembly of tricyclo[6.2.1.0(1,6)]undecan-4-one and related polycyclic compounds by tandem electroreductive cyclization.
abstract: [reaction: see text] Electroreductive tandem cyclization of 4-allyl-4-(2-bromoprop-2-en-1-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one to tricyclo[6.2.1.0(1,6)]undecan-4-one has been demonstrated. This protocol represents an attractive alternative to conventional tandem radical cyclization.
