Abstract

MeSO(3)H effects the intramolecular allenylation of a series of aldehydes I to provide allenyl alcohol product 3 as a single diastereoisomer. Cyclization proceeds rapidly at -78 degrees C. However, when the reaction is performed at room temperature, aldehyde 1 provides enone product 7 instead. A mechanism for the formation of this product is proposed in which the initially formed allenyl alcohol, 3 undergoes dehydration to provide an allyl carbocation, which is trapped with water, thereby installing the enone.
