The scope and limitations of the platinum catalyzed 7-endo cyclization of internal alkynyl amides were investigated. Substitution of the alkyne with an aryl group gave better results, presumably because it stabilized the transition state. Applying the reaction to a secondary amide, the caprazamycin core was successfully synthesized from commercially available material in eight steps.
