Abstract

Two types of enantioselective [2 + 2 + 2] cycloadditions of triynes using chiral rhodium catalysts are disclosed. The intramolecular reaction of ortho-aminophenol-tethered triynes provides chiral tripodal compounds. Consecutive inter- and intramolecular reactions of ortho-phenylene-tethered triynes provide chiral tetraphenylenes.
