P(n)Bu(3)-catalyzed cyclization reactions of salicylaldimines and salicylaldehydes with ethyl 2,3-butadienoate gave the corresponding functionalized chromans in moderate to good yields in THF under mild conditions. The new reaction provides a new method for the synthesis of biologically active chroman products.

Upon exposure of mono-enone mono-allylic carbonates to tributylphosphine and 1 mol % Pd(Ph3P)4, efficient conversion to the corresponding cycloallylated products is achieved. This transformation combines the nucleophilic features of the Morita-Baylis-Hillman reaction with the electrophilic features of the Trost-Tsuji reaction.
