Abstract
The (3 + 2) cycloaddition of arynes with allylic ylides remains a formidable challenge because both intermediates are highly reactive and prone to spontaneous quenching. Here, we report a (3 + 2) cycloaddition of pyrazolone MBH carbonates with arynes, enabling the efficient synthesis of diverse indene-fused spiropyrazolones. The key is employing a new bifunctional Lewis base catalyst to facilitate the cycloaddition of in situ generated allylic pyridinium ylides with arynes.
