Abstract
A Rh(iii)-catalyzed regioselective C-H [4 + 2] C-annulation reaction of vinyl enaminones with alkynes is developed to provide sterically congested polysubstituted salicylaldehydes. This reaction shows relatively broad substrate scope with good functional group tolerance. The applications of this method to prepare useful synthetic precursors and bioactive skeletons are also exemplified.
