Abstract: Propargylic silanes of type 2,4,9.11. and 13 undergo smooth cyclization in refluxing benzene and in the rescnce of AIBN and tributyltin hydride. Ring closure of carbocycles and also of 5 and 6memhemd K hetcmcyclic ring8 i8 achieved in high chemical yields. Radical cyclizations
have proved
to be valuable
8yIIthetiC method8 of forming cyclic or polycyclic
frameworks. 1,2 In this letter we wish to report a novel method of constructing either carbo- or hetezocyclic skeletons by a radical cyclization - initiated by AIBN in the presence of ixibutyltin hydride - ofpropargylic
silanes.
Ketones of type 2 or 4 can be easily obtained by a tandem reaction of the copper-catalyzed functional&d
addition of a
Grignard magent to cyclobexenone 1 and in situ quenching with NBS.3 0
