Abstract
A rhodium-catalyzed 1,1-hydroacylation of thioacyl carbenes with alkynyl and alkenyl aldehydes and subsequent 6- endo-trig/dig cyclization are realized, giving structurally diverse 4 H-thiopyran-4-ones and 2,3-dihydro-4 H-thiopyran-4-ones in moderate to good yields. The oxidative addition of Rh(I) to aldehydes is proposed to be the turnover-limiting step. Manipulations of estrones demonstrate the applications of our formal (3 + 3) transannulations in the structural modifications of natural products.
