Abstract

Hexacarbonyldicobalt complexes of biaryl-substituted 4-methoxybutynones and 4-methoxy-2-butynes undergo intramolecular Nicholas reactions to form dibenzocyclooctyne–Co2(CO)6 complexes in good yields. Reductive decomplexation of the cyclization products is possible, and the method has been applied to a formal synthesis of isoschizandrin.
