Abstract
Abstract The reactivities of 1-buten-3-yne derivatives toward hydroformylation were studied using a rhodium catalyst. Unexpectedly, cyclopentenone derivatives were obtained in moderate yields together with formylsubstituted dienes and unsaturated lactones. This reaction offers a new method for the catalytic synthesis of cyclopentenones. A mechanism for the cyclic carbonylation of enynes is also discussed.
