42. The N-BOC enamides underwent Suzuki coupling but failed to cyclize under the one-pot conditions. When monoarylated N-BOC enamides were separately subjected to Pd-catalyzed cyclization conditions, cyclization did occur, but substantial loss of the BOC group was observed. See the Supporting Information for experimental details.
