Transition metal-mediated cycloaddition reactions provide synthetic access to important organic ring systems inaccessible by traditional cycloaddition methodology. 2 Seven-membered-ring synthesis is prominent among these efforts, with important recent advances in two-component cycloadditions and intramolecular cyclization methodology. 3 Our investigation is focused on the development of metal-mediated allyl/alkyne cycloaddition reactivity patterns, targeting intermolecular three-component cyclization processes. 4 η3-Allyl alkyne coupling reactions proceed via vinyl olefin intermediates and typically provide open-chain η5-pentadienyl complexes5 (path a) or η5-cyclopentadienyl complexes6 (path b) from reaction with a single alkyne (Scheme 1). Incorporation of two alkynes has also been reported, leading to the formation of η1, η4-methanocyclohexadiene complexes (path c). 7 By controlling the regiochemistry of the migratory insertion that determines ring size in the double alkyne reactions, we recently established the first allyl/alkyne cycloaddition reactions to yield seven-membered-ring systems with high selectivity (path d). 8, 9 To exploit the synthetic potential of that iridium-mediated reactivity pattern, less expensive and more reactive organometallic systems were sought for the development of organic methodology.In this communication, we report that unsaturated permethylcyclopentadienylcobalt (III) allyl complexes react with alkynes to give substituted η5-cycloheptadienyl complexes by metal-mediated intermolecular [3+ 2+ 2] cycloaddition. Subsequent nucleophilic alkylation/decomplexation procedures provide functionalized organic cycloheptadienes in a highly regioselective and stereoselective manner, providing convergent new methodology for the construction of synthetically valuable seven-memberedring systems.
