Gently does it : The Pd‐catalyzed oxidative cyclization of enynes with hydrogen peroxide, a simple, inexpensive, and environmental benign oxidant, is proposed to proceed through a catalytic Pd II /Pd IV cycle in which the key CCl bond‐forming step is the formation of a Pd IV intermediate (see scheme). This is followed by a direct reductive elimination to generate CCl bonds with retention of the configuration of the C(sp 3 ) center.
