“…Initially, carbopalladation reactions of alkynes were integrated in cascades (domino processes) leading to steroid derivatives and highly substituted arenes . Recently, novel domino processes with one or several carbopalladations as key reactions have been designed affording highly complex natural products or natural product analogs, and also other more specific targets such as spirocycles, (oligo)cyclic compounds, dibenzopentafulvalenes, helical oligoenes, fenestranes, persubstituted cyclooctatetraenes, and molecular switches . Because the emerging organopalladium species, which is formed at the beginning of such a cascade, commonly attacks the carbon–carbon triple bond in a syn ‐fashion, both residues are located at the same side of the newly generated double bond…”
