Palladium-Catalyzed Cascade Reductive and Carbonylative Cyclization of Ortho-Iodo-Tethered Methylenecyclopropanes (MCPs) Using N-Formylsaccharin as CO Source

摘要

A palladium-catalyzed reductive and carbonylative cyclization of ortho-iodo-tethered methylenecyclopropanes (MCPs) using N-formylsaccharin as CO source has been developed, affording the desired indanone derivatives in moderate to good yields with high regio- and stereoselectivity and good functional group compatibility.
