Abstract

The palladium-catalyzed reaction of vinylic bromides with disubstituted acetylenes at 100°C in the presence of triethylamine produces penta- or hexa-substituted fulvenes in low to moderate yields. Reactions with 3-hexyne under the same conditions usually yield dialkylidenecyclopentenes as products, apparently by rearrangement of the expected fulvenes. Fulvenes formed from the reaction of disubstituted alkynes with Z-2-bromovinyl ethyl ether can be hydrolyzed to produce cyclopentadiene carboxaldehydes.
