Synthesis of 5; General Procedure: To a solution of 4 (50 mmol) in MeOH (100 mL) cooled to - 78 °C were added BF3·OEt2 (60 mmol) and 1,2-ethanedithiol (51 mmol). The mixture was gradually warmed to r.t.
and stirred for 12 h. After quenching with a 10% aq solution of NaOH, the organic
layer was separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic layers were washed with a 10% aq solution of NaOH, brine, dried
(MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give the crude propargylic dithioacetal
which was dissolved in MeOH (100 mL). To this methanolic solution was added K2CO3 (200 mmol) and a 10% aq solution of NaOH (25 mL).14 The mixture was stirred at r.t. overnight and then quenched with dilute HCl. CH2Cl2 was added and the aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic solution was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was chromatographed
on silica gel (hexane-EtOAc, 20:1) to give 5.
Synthesis of 6; General Procedure A solution of Pd2(dba)3 (2.5-5.0 mol%) in THF (15 mL), PPh3 (10-20 mol%), and aryl iodide (1.0 mmol) were heated at 65-70 °C under an Ar atmosphere;
a solution of the Grignard reagent (1.0 mmol) in THF (15 mL) was added dropwise [prepared
from the corresponding 5 (1 equiv) and MeMgI (2.0 M, Et2O; 1.1 equiv)]. The mixture was refluxed for 10-12 h. After cooling to r.t., the mixture
was quenched with a sat. solution of NH4Cl. Et2O was added and the organic layer was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo, and the residue was chromatographed
on silica gel (hexane-EtOAc, 20-30:1) to give 6.

for 30 min. Cyclohexanone (0.20 mL, 2 mmol) was then added, the dry-ice bath was removed,
and the mixture was stirred at r.t. for 2 h. The reaction was quenched with a sat.
solution of NH4Cl, Et2O was added, and the organic layer was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was chromatographed
on silica gel (hexane-EtOAc, 3:1) to give 7 as a white powder (527 mg, 87%); mp 72-74 °C. IR (KBr): 3403 cm-1. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz): δ = 1.15-1.34 (m, 2 H), 1.48-1.65 (m, 4 H), 1.68-1.80 (m, 4 H), 1.97 (br

The reaction can also be carried out without NaOH, however, a higher reaction temperature
(40-45 °C) was required.
