Development of Palladium-Catalyzed Cycloalkenylation and its Application to Natural Product Synthesis

Abstract
To solve the drawback (considerable decrease in yield on a large scale) of cycloalkenylation employing stoichiometric amounts of Pd(OAc)2, a novel palladium-catalyzed cycloalkenylation has been developed. Stereoselective total syntheses of several bioactive terpenoids have been achieved by means of the above catalytic reaction.
