Gold-catalyzed tandem Diels-Alder reactions of enynals/enynones with alkenes: generation and trapping of cyclic o-QDMs.
An efficient gold-catalyzed method to generate the highly reactive cyclic o-QDM species from the enynal/enynone and alkene is reported. This method allows rapid access to a variety of structurally unique propeller-like products through tandem Diels-Alder reactions.
