title: A new route to substituted phenols by cationic rhodium(I)/BINAP complex-catalyzed decarboxylative [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition.
abstract: A new route to substituted phenols has been developed by cationic rhodium(I)/BINAP complex-catalyzed decarboxylative [2 + 2 + 2] cycloadditions of 1,6- and 1,7-diynes with commercially available vinylene carbonate.
