Rh-Catalyzed <i>trans</i>-Divinylcyclopropane Rearrangement: An Approach to 1,5-Disubstituted 1,4-Cycloheptadienes
Under mild conditions and without the need of inert gas protection, a Rh-catalyzed rearrangement of <i>trans</i>-divinylcyclopropanes to form 1,5-disubstituted 1,4-cycloheptadienes has been developed and is disclosed here. This reaction can expedite the synthesis of challenging seven-membered carbocycles.
