Abstract
Herein, we demonstrated a Pd-catalyzed cascade reaction that involves arylation, Trost-Oppolzer type Alder ene reaction, and double bond isomerization using the 4-(2-alkynylphenyl)-allylcarbonates and aryl boronic acids. This cascade process delivers a wide array of distinctive functionalized CF3-benzofulvenes in good yields with high stereoselectivity (E). A single palladium catalyst orchestrates the two individual reactions in a single operation. Trost-Oppolzer type Alder ene reaction is the key in this transformation, also called a rare acid-free iso-Nazarov type cyclization.
