C. Jonasson et al., Palladium(II)-catalyzed intramolecular 1,2-oxidation of allenes involving nitrogen nucleophiles, TETRAHEDR L, 41(10), 2000, pp. 1619-1622
A series of allenic tosylamides have been prepared and shown to undergo pal
ladium(II)-catalyzed cyclization in the presence of lithium bromide and a c
opper(II) salt to give pyrrolidines. Palladium-catalyzed 1,2-oxidation of a
llenic lactams in the presence of LiBr and p-benzoquinone was also studied.
