Soft carbonucleophile

In 1985, Tsuji s group carried out a Pd-catalyzed reaction of propargyl carbonate with methyl acetoacetate as a soft carbonucleophile under neutral conditions to afford 4,5-dihydrofuran 109 [89-91]. The resulting unstable 109 readily isomerized to furan 110 under acidic conditions. In addition, they also reported formation of disubstituted furan 112 via a Pd-catalyzed heteroannulation of hydroxy propargylic carbonate 111 [92], Presumably, an allenylpalladium complex (c/. 114) was the key intermediate. 

De Meijere and co-workers have extended the scope of this process by applying this palladium-mediated multicomponent reaction to the bicyclopropylidene 72 as the alkene partner (Scheme 8.33). In this case, the intermolecular trapping of 7r-allyl palladium intermediate 73 with a soft carbonucleophile or with primary or secondary amines affords only products 74 having a methylenecyclopropane end group [78],...
