title: A sequential palladium-catalyzed alder-ene-reductive amination reaction.
abstract: [reaction: see text]. Alkyne allyl alcohols are readily transformed into beta-amino ethyl alkylidene tetrahydrofurans or beta-amino ethyl alkylidene pyrrolidines in a Pd-catalyzed cycloisomerization-reductive amination sequence with remarkable chemoselectivity leaving benzyl groups and trisubstituted double bonds intact.
