The development of novel methods and strategies for the formation of polycyclic ring structures is of utmost importance in organic synthesis. The present study describes the investigation of a transannular cyclization strategy for constructing bicyclic ring systems. To test the viability of the approach, the SmI2-mediated ketone-olefin coupling reaction, a method previously developed in this laboratory, was examined. Investigation of the transannular cyclization of cyclooctene, cyclodecene, and ...[more]
