The gold(I)-catalyzed endo-cyclization of o-(1-hydroxyallyl)phenols to form chromenes is reported. The title compounds are prepared in high yield from readily available substrates. The system tolerates both electron rich...
Hydroxylation of a monomeric triphenylphosphine-cyclopalladated ferrocenylchloropyrimidine [PdCl{[(eta(5)-C5H5)]Fe[(eta(5)-C5H3)-N-2-C4H2-Cl]}(PPh3)] with KOH gave the first example of a tetranuclear cluster monophosphin...
