Abstract
A novel palladium-catalyzed domino reaction of 1-bromo-2-(cyclopropylidenemethyl)benzene and 2-alkynylbenzenamine is reported, which generates 2-(naphthalen-2-yl)benzenamines and 5H-indeno[1,2-c]quinolines via 6-endo and 5-exo cyclization, respectively. The regioselectivity for the final outcome can be affected by phosphine and N-heterocyclic carbene ligands.
