Abstract
This account describes the recent advances on the Pd-catalyzed [4+2]-benzannulation reaction, development of chemo- and regiospecific formal [2+2+2]-cyclotrimerization of alkynes, as well as discovery and evolution of the transition metal-catalyzed cycloisomerization of alkynyl ketones and imines into five-membered heteroaromatics.
