A novel chloropalladation-initiated intermolecular oxyvinylcyclization of alkenes with alkynoic acids or alkynols is developed. This protocol provides a series of 3-methylene 纬-lactone and tetrahydrofuran derivatives in moderate to excellent yields with high stereoselectivities in the presence of PdCl2 and CuCl2 or CuCl2路2H2O. Besides a broad substrate scope, this method has the advantages of mild reaction conditions and easily accessible starting materials. Furthermore, the construction of C鈥揅l, C(sp2)鈥揅(sp3), and C鈥揙 bonds in one step was also achieved in this transformation.
