It has been established that a cationic rhodium(I)/binap complex catalyzes the cross‐cyclotrimerization of two molecules of a monosubstituted allene with one molecule of a functionalized alkyne to give 3,6‐dialkylidenecyclohex‐1‐enes. In contrast, the reactions involving di‐ or trisubstituted allenes and/or unfunctionalized alkynes afforded cross‐dimerization products, substituted dendralenes, through β‐hydrogen elimination from the corresponding rhodacycles.
