We have developed novel Rh‐catalyzed [ n +1]‐type cycloadditions of 1,4‐enyne esters, which involve an acyloxy migration as a key step. The efficient preparation of functionalized resorcinols, including biaryl derivatives, from readily available 1,4‐enyne esters and CO was achieved by Rh‐catalyzed [5+1] cycloaddition accompanied by 1,2‐acyloxy migration. When enyne esters had an internal alkyne moiety, the reaction proceeded by a [4+1]‐type cycloaddition involving 1,3‐acyloxy migration, leading to cyclopentenones.
