The 5-endo-trig-type cyclization has been performed using a Pd-bis(isoxazoline) catalyst. The present cyclization of β,γ-unsaturated carbonyl compounds gave γ-butenolides and 3-pyrrolin-2-ones in good to excellent yields.

The reaction pathway of an enantioselective 5-endo-trig-type cyclization of 3-alkenoic acids catalyzed by a chiral palladium-spiro-bis(isoxazoline) complex, Pd-SPRIX, has been studied by density functional theory calculations. The most plausible pathway involves intramolecular nucleophilic attack of the carboxylate moiety on the C=C double bond activated by Pd-SPRIX and β-H elimination from the resulting organopalladium intermediate. The enantioselectivity was determined in the cyclization step through the formation of a π-olefin complex, in which one of the two enantiofaces of the olefin moiety was selected.
