Abstract

An efficient organophosphorus-mediated cross-Rauhut-Currier/Wittig domino reaction of vinyl ketones with chalcones has been developed for the synthesis of trisubstituted cyclopentenes. The new synthetic method has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, high efficiency, environmental friendliness and satisfactory yields.
