(Chemical Equation Presented) A cobalt(I)-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between an internal acceptor-substituted alkyne and a terminal alkene leads to the formation of regiochemically enriched polysubstituted 1,3-cyclohexadiene derivatives in acceptable yields when methyl butynoate is used, whereas regiochemically pure products are formed in good yields form phenyl propyonate. The concurrent cyclotrimerization reaction of the alkyne to the corresponding benzene derivative is dependent on the sterical bulk of the alkyne and is considerably reduced with the sterically more hindered alkyne.
