Abstract
A highly efficient catalytic, intermolecular synthesis of the cyclopentane skeleton from simple starting products is reported. Allyl halides, alkynes, and carbon monoxide react under very mild reaction conditions by means of a substoichiometric amount of iron, acetone, and a catalytic amount of Ni(II) iodide.
