21. General procedure for rhodium-catalyzed additions of chloroformate esters to allenes. In a thick-walled Pyrex tube was placed a mixture of an allene (0.5 mmol), compound 2 (2.5 mmol), rhodium catalyst (0.025 mmol) and toluene (1.0 mL) under nitrogen. The tube was then flame-sealed and the mixture was heated at 110°C for 20 h with stirring. After cooling, the reaction mixture was diluted with toluene to 2.0 mL and was analyzed by gas chromatography after addition of an appropriate amount of eicosane as internal standard. Volatiles were removed in vacuo and the residue was purified by column chromatograph (silica gel, eluted with hexane) and further by preparative TLC (silica gel, eluted with a 6:1 hexane-diethyl ether mixture) to afford 3 as colorless oil.
22. All products 3 were isolated and gave satisfactory spectral and/or analytical data reported below.
