title: Decarbonylative cycloaddition of phthalic anhydrides with allenes.
abstract: The decarbonylative cycloadditions of phthalic anhydrides with allenes were performed by using nickel catalyst. The asymmetric variant of the cycloaddition was also achieved by using chiral phosphine ligands to provide δ-lactones enantioselectively.
