An efficient and reusable polystyrene-supported eta(5)-cyclopentadieny
l rhodium catalyst is prepared and applied to the synthesis of substit
uted cyclopentanones either via hydrocarbonylative cyclization startin
g from 1,4-dienes or from allyl vinyl ethers via tandem Claisen rearra
ngement and intramolecular hydroacylation of the 4-pentenal intermedia
