Polyene cyclization of compounds 3 and 4 under catalysis with AlCl3 and/or SnCl4 gave rise to complex bicyclic products 8 and 9, structures of which were highly unexpected, and X-ray analyses were invoked for unambiguously structural identification. Mechanistically, a tandem sigma-bond rearrangement process, including an unusual through-space 1,5-hydride or 1,3-alkyl shift as a key operation, is proposed.
在AlCl₃和/或SnCl₄催化下,化合物3和4的多烯环化反应生成了复杂的双环产物8和9,其结构非常出人意料,需借助X射线分析来明确结构鉴定。从机理上讲,提出了一个串联的σ键重排过程,其中包括一个不寻常的通过空间的1,5-氢化物或1,3-烷基迁移作为关键步骤。
