Abstract

O-(omega-Alkynyl) hydroxamates derived from cyclobutenyl carboxylic acids were identified as viable substrates in intramolecular rhodium(III)-catalyzed hetero-annulations, which led to diversely substituted cyclobuta[c]pyridones. Further functionalization of the resulting cyclobutapyridones enabled the synthesis of cyclobuta[c]pyridines and other nitrogen heterocycles after electrocyclic ring opening of the four-membered ring.
