Select Rh! The rhodium(I)‐catalyzed double cyclization of 1,5‐bis(1,2‐allenylketone)s gives TNF‐α inhibitor (A)‐type skeletons at room temperature in acetone or 1,2‐dichloroethane (DCE, see scheme; Ts=Tosyl). Compared with [PdCl 2 (MeCN) 2 ], [RhCl(CO) 2 ] 2 shows excellent selectivity towards the nonaromatic CC bond. The selectivity of unsymmetrical substrates can be controlled by the electronic effect.
