Abstract
Metal-catalyzed, regioselective [5 + 2] cycloadditions of vinylcyclopropanes and electron-rich alkynes (ynol ethers) provide dioxygenated seven-membered rings, a common feature of numerous natural and non-natural targets and building blocks for synthesis. The reactions proceed in high yield at room temperature and tolerate a broad range of functionalities.
