Diastereodivergent4+2annulation of biphenylenes with enones via nickel(0)-catalyzed C-C bond activation

摘要

Ni(0)-catalyzed regio-and diastereodivergent[4+2]annulation of biphenylenes withα,βunsaturated ketones is described.This solvent-controlled diastereodivergent reaction integrates C-C bond cleavage of biphenylene and C=C double bond insertion selectivity,offering a mild approach to all possible diastereoisomers of 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene derivatives from the same starting materials.
