“…Among those strategies, having one of the C–C double bonds participating in the Diels–Alder reaction replaced by a triple bond, the reaction of the diene with a dienophilic alkyne can afford cyclohexadiene, which process has been called the didehydro-Diels–Alder reaction. Another involvement of alkyne, the combination of 1,3-enyne as the 4π-component with alkyne, results in a cyclic allene adduct, which rapidly rearranges via a [1,5] hydrogen shift to benzene in tetradehydro-Diels–Alder reaction . The cycloaddition between 1,3-diyne and diynophilic alkyne generates a highly oxidized and constrained benzyne via hexadehydro-Diels–Alder reaction, and this versatile intermediate participates in the trapping sequence to develop the structural complexity. − …”
