We report here a new example of cyclic cotrimerization. The reaction of R, β-enones 1 (1 equiv) and alkynes 2 (2 equiv) proceeded smoothly in the presence of a nickel-organoaluminum catalyst system to give the corresponding cyclic adducts (reaction A in eq 1). Moreover, regioselective cotrimerization was observed in the reaction with 1-alkyne.We recently reported the nickel-catalyzed tandem reaction of 1, 2, chlorotrimethylsilane (TMSCl), and organotin or organozinc to provide the corresponding coupling products (reaction B in eq 1). 1 During this research, we found that the reaction of trimethylaluminum (Me3Al) with 2-cyclopenten-1-one (1a), 1-hexyne (2a), and TMSCl in the presence of a nickel-triphenylphosphine (PPh3) catalyst in THF at room temperature gave an unexpected cyclic cotrimerization adduct (n) 0, R) Bu, R′) H; isomer mixture) derived from one molecule of 1a and two molecules of 2a in a total yield of 48%(reaction A). To the best of our knowledge, there is no example of the cotrimerization of enone 1 with alkyne 2. 2 Therefore, we started to investigate the nickel-catalyzed (5 mol%) reaction of 1a with a stoichiometric amount of 2a (ie, 2 equiv vs 1a) in the presence of Me3Al to determine the optimum conditions for obtaining the adducts in high yield. A palladium complex such as Pd (acac) 2 did not catalyze the reaction. TMSCl was not required for cotrimerization. The amount of Me3Al could be reduced to 40 mol%. When phenol (ca. 3 equiv vs Me3Al) was added to the reaction system, the yield of the adduct increased to 86%. 3 Other enones and alkynes could also be applied to this cotrimerization. 4
