Abstract

A highly efficient method for the synthesis of versatile cyclopentenones from readily available enynyl acetates via tandem Au(I)-catalyzed 3,3-rearrangement and the Nazarov reaction is developed. Significant substrate flexibility and excellent control of the double bond position in the cyclopentenone ring render this an attractive method for cyclopentenone synthesis.
