Abstract
An efficient and convenient palladium-catalyzed cyclization reaction of alkynes with isocyanides followed by hydrolysis enables a practical synthesis of a broad range of valuable polysubstituted maleimide derivatives under mild reaction conditions. Isocyanide serve as both C and N sources.
