To the best of our knowledge, bridgehead carbon benzofused-bridged ring systems have previously not been accessible to the synthetic community. Here, we describe a formal type-II [4 + 4] cycloaddition approach that provides fully sp<sup>2</sup>-carbon embedded anti-Bredt bicyclo[5.3.1] skeletons through the Rh-catalyzed C<sub>1</sub>-C<sub>8</sub> activation of benzocyclobutenones (BCBs) and their coupling with pedant dienamides. Variously substituted dienamides have been coupled with BCBs to pr ...[more]
