Abstract
Ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reaction of enynes tethered by an N-O bond produced 6- to 8-membered 1,2-oxaza heterocyclic compounds in high yields. Diels-Alder reaction of the cyclic 1,3-dienes with various dienophiles afforded bi- or tri-cyclic compounds efficiently.
Key words
cyclizations - Diels-Alder reaction - enynes - metathesis - ruthenium
