Cyclization of 5-hexynoic acid to 3-alkoxy-2-cyclohexenones

Abstract: SummaryThe one-pot cyclization of 5-hexynoic acid to produce 3-alkoxy-2-cyclohexenones proceeds in good yields (58–90%). 3-Hexynoic acid was converted to its acyl chloride with the aid of oxalyl chloride and was cyclized to 3-chloro-2-cyclohexenone upon addition of indium(III) chloride. Subsequent addition of alcohol nucleophiles led to the desired 3-alkoxy-2-cyclohexenones.

“…Accordingly, the 3‐hexynoic acid chloride 180 which is generated from its acid 179 with the aid of oxalyl chloride is cyclized to 3‐chloro‐2‐cyclohexenone 181 upon in situ addition of indium(III) chloride as the Lewis acid catalyst. Further addition of alcohol nucleophiles results in the formation of the expected products, 3‐alkoxy‐2‐cyclohexenones 182 (Scheme ) …”
