The development of synthetic methods allowing the construction of seven-membered carbocycles is of prime importance in organic synthesis given the large number of biologically relevant natural products featuring this basic unit in their (polycyclic) structure.[1] Among the different methods reported so far, the transition metal catalyzed [5+ 2] and [4+ 3] cycloadditions can certainly be considered as the most synthetically valuable.[2, 3] They indeed allow a general, convergent, and efficient access to various seven-membered rings, with the possibility to rapidly and considerably increase the structural complexity when performed in an intramolecular manner.The well-established and probably most powerful strategies to generate the 1, 4-cycloheptadienyl unit 1 rely, for instance, on either the rhodium (I)-or ruthenium (II)-catalyzed [5+ 2] cycloaddition between a vinylcyclopropane and an alkyne,[2a–d] or the rhodium (II)-catalyzed [4+ 3] cycloaddition between a diene and a vinyldiazo derivative [Eq.(1)].[2e] More recently, electrophilic platimum (II) and gold (I) species have also shown their catalytic potential to produce 1 by a [4+ 3] cycloaddition between an allene and a diene [Eq.(1)].[2f–i]
