Sulfur-Assisted Propargyl−Allenyl Isomerizations and Electrocyclizations for the Convenient and Efficient Synthesis of Polyfunctionalized Benzenes and Naphthalenes

Abstract

A facile and efficient electrocyclization for the synthesis of polyfunctionalized benzene and naphthalene derivatives was reported. As a result of the ready availability of starting materials and simple operation, this type of reaction has potential utility in organic synthesis.
