Abstract

The Bergman cycloaromatization reaction efficiently converts easily prepared acyclic enediynes into aromatic rings. In order to prepare larger, functionalized fused aromatic systems using this reaction, a thorough understanding of how functionalization affects cycloaromatization is necessary. We present here our studies on the influence of substituents at three different functionalization sites on cycloaromatization, and how these ...
