A Co (0)-catalyzed intramolecular alkyne/benzocyclobutenone coupling through C–C
cleavage of benzocyclobutenones is described. Co2 (CO) 8/P [3, 5-(CF3) 2C6H3] 3 was …

A Pauson–Khand cycloaddition of alkynes, alkenes, and carbon monoxide promoted by
cobalt carbonyl and nitrous oxide to furnish cyclopentenones is described. Preliminary …

Generally judged poor electronic regioselectivity of alkyne insertion in intermolecular
Pauson–Khand reaction (PKR) has severely restricted its synthetic applications. In our …

Against the rules: The synthesis of the previously unknown β‐substituted regioisomers of the
intermolecular Pauson–Khand reaction of terminal alkynes is reported. This regiochemistry …

The Co2 (CO) 8-mediated intramolecular Pauson–Khand reaction is an elegant approach to
obtain cyclopentenone derivatives containing asymmetric centers. In this work, we employed …

The intermolecular Pauson–Khand (PK) reactions of sterically comparable (2-phenylethynyl)
heteroaromatic compounds with norbornene, mediated by Co2 (CO) 8 to give …

Stoichiometric and catalytic intermolecular Pauson− Khand reactions (PKRs) of
dissymmetric fluorinated alkynes were performed, affording regioselectively α-fluorinated …

Both steric and electronic factors of substituted alkynes are known to guide α/β-
cyclopentenone regioselectivity in the cobalt-mediated Pauson–Khand reaction (PKR). In …

Chemical functionalization of nanotubes, in which their properties can be combined with
those of other classes of materials, is fundamental to improve the physicochemical …

Described are the X-ray crystallographic and spectral properties of Co-complexes that were
isolated from two Pauson− Khand reactions of chiral cyclopropenes. These are the first …
