Summary:Substituted seven and eight membered rings were formed from cyclopentanone and cyclo-hexanone via cycloadditions of pyrrolidine enamines with alkynyl phosphonates. This procedure provides straightforward access to functionalized medium sized rings that could be further manipulated in the synthesis of a number of natural products. Cyclic enamines and alkynyl phosphonates undergo reaction and thermal rearrangement to give ring expansion by two carbons, providing seven and eight membered rings.
