Abstract
A Pd-catalyzed oxa-(4+4)-cycloaddition between 1-azadienes and (2-hydroxymethyl)allyl carbonates is described. Aurone-derived azadienes furnished polycyclic 1,5-oxazocines in good yields. Interestingly, linear azadienes have also been involved and yielded monocyclic heterocycles with complete regioselectivity. DFT calculations were carried out to gain insight on this observation.

Typical Procedure for the Pd-Catalyzed (4+4) Cycloadditions of 2a with 1a (Benzene, rt)
In a screw-cap SVL tube filled with argon, Pd2(dba)3 (13.7 mg, 0.015 mmol, 0.05 equiv) and dppe (12.0 mg, 0.03 mmol, 0.1 equiv) were added in benzene (3 mL, 0.1 M) and stirred for 15 min at rt. Carbonate 2a (84.7 mg, 0.45 mmol, 1.5 equiv) and azadiene 1a (113 mg, 0.30 mmol) were then added, the reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 16 h, filtered over silica, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the crude product. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel (petroleum ether/EtOAc = 85:15) to afford 3a (109 mg, 81%) as a yellow solid; mp 46 °C.
