Thioureas as Ligands in the Pd-Catalyzed Intramolecular Pauson−Khand Reaction

Abstract

[reaction: see text] The thiourea-Pd complex was established as a novel type of catalyst in the PKR of allylpropargylamine, and the demonstrated chemistry may prove to be valuable for developing thiuorea as a ligand for the Pd-catalyzed Pauson-Khand reaction.
