Abstract
A modified method is reported for the conversion of unsaturated sulfonamides into their cyclic saturated counterparts. This method utilises a single palladium catalyst for an intramolecular Heck reaction and subsequent transfer hydrogenation, which is achieved in one-pot following the addition of ammonium formate. Accordingly, a range of fourteen structural variations are reported and under optimal conditions the adducts were generated in typically good to excellent yields. Notably, discrimination of differentially substituted dienes can be accomplished in the case of compounds 28 and 29 and the process was only observed to fail with the more sterically hindered precursor 32.
