Rh-catalyzed intermolecular and enantioselective [4 + 2] cycloaddition of 1,3-dienes with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate.
A Rh-BINAP complex catalyzed an intermolecular and enantioselective [4 + 2] cycloaddition of 1-monosubstituted, 1,1- or 1,2-disubstituted buta-1,3-dienes with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to give chiral cyclohexa-1,4-dienes.
