Reductive Cyclization of Bromoenynamides with Alcohols as Hydride Source: Synthesis and Reactions of 2-Amidodienes

Under basic conditions in alcoholic solvents, bromoenynamides undergo palladium-catalyzed cyclization to cyclic 2-amidodienes in good to excellent yields. This process represents the first use of an alcohol as a hydride source in an alkyne carbopalladation/termination sequence, with the site selecti...
