Palladium‐Catalyzed Intermolecular [5+2] Cycloaddition: Highly Regioselective Synthesis of Allene‐Containing 2‐Benzoxepines
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Palladium‐catalyzed intermolecular [5+2] cycloaddition of propargylic carbonates with benzyl allenyl ethers has been developed for the synthesis of allene‐containing 2‐benzoxepines. The reaction proceeds by a pathway involving decarboxylative allenylpalladium formation, regioselective intermolecular insertion, and intramolecular nucleophilic attack. In this way, the sequential formation of C−C and C−O bonds results in the generation of a 2‐benzoxepine skeleton in a one‐pot process.
