Abstract

Theoretical calculations have been performed to investigate the mechanism and stereoselectivity of rhodium-catalysed intramolecular [3+2] cycloaddition for construction of a substituted hexahydropentalene complex. A new C–C bond cleavage mechanism, retro-Aldol-type, is proposed and verified for this Rh-catalysed [3+2] cycloaddition reaction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
