R. Grigg et al., PALLADIUM-CATALYZED TETRAMOLECULAR CASCADE PROCESSES INCORPORATING ALLENE AND CARBON-MONOXIDE, Tetrahedron letters, 38(28), 1997, pp. 5031-5034
Chemo- and regio-specific palladium catalysed four component cascade p
rocesses, involving formation of 4 new bonds, initiated by oxidative a
ddition of Pd(0) with aryl/heteroaryl iodides followed by sequential i
ncorporation of CO(1atm), allene (1atm) and an S- or N-nucleophile [Ph
SO2-or (RNTs)(-)] occur in good to excellent yield at 50 degrees C. (C
