Rhodium-catalyzed enantio- and diastereoselective intramolecular [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of unsymmetrical dienynes

Abstract

A cationic rhodium(I)/(R)-H8-BINAP or (R)-Segphos complex catalyzes an intramolecular [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of unsymmetrical dienynes, leading to fused tri- and tetracyclic cyclohexenes bearing two tertiary or quaternary carbon centers in high yields with high enantio- and diastereoselectivity.
