title: A palladium(II)-catalyzed synthesis of spiroacetals through a one-pot multicomponent cascade reaction.
abstract: Functionalized spiroacetals have been easily prepared in a one-pot three-component coupling process that involves the reaction of pentynol derivatives, salicylaldehydes, and amines in the presence of catalytic amounts of a palladium(II) complex (see scheme). Alternatively, oxygen-substituted spiroacetals can be obtained by using orthoesters as the third component.
