RT Journal Article T1 Rhodium-Catalyzed (5+1) Annulations Between 2-Alkenylphenols and Allenes: A Practical Entry to 2,2-Disubstituted 2H-Chromenes A1 Casanova González, Noelia A1 Seoane Fernández, Andrés A1 Mascareñas Cid, José Luis A1 Gulías Costa, Moisés K1 Allenes K1 Annulations K1 C-H activation K1 Reaction mechanisms K1 Rhodium AB Readily available alkenylphenols react with allenes under rhodium catalysis to provide valuable 2,2-disubstituted 2H-chromenes. The whole process, which involves the cleavage of one C-H bond of the alkenyl moiety and the participation of the allene as a one-carbon cycloaddition partner, can be considered a simple, versatile, and atom-economical (5+1) heteroannulation. The reaction tolerates a broad range of substituents both in the alkenylphenol and in the allene, and most probably proceeds through a mechanism involving a rhodium-catalyzed C-C coupling followed by two sequential pericyclic processes.
