palladium-catalyzed chemo- and stereoselective [2 + 2 + 2]
annulation reaction of 2-(2-enynyl)pyridines with arynes has been
developed. A wide range of (E)- or (E/Z)-isomers of 2-(2-enynyl)pyridines and arynes was tolerated, providing
a spectrum of (E)-phenanthrenylated 2-alkenylpyridines
in good yield, together with the generation of a chiral axis between
an alkene and a phenanthrene ring.
