The Pauson-Khand reaction (PKR) is a key cycloaddition reaction that can efficiently synthesize cyclopentenones and their derivatives in a single step, making it a popular method in the total synthesis of terpenes.
The Pauson-Khand reaction (PKR) is a formal [2 + 2 + 1] cycloaddition involving an alkyne, an alkene and carbon monoxide mediated by a hexacarbonyldicobaltalkyne complex to yield cyclopentenones in a single step. This versatile reaction has become a method of choice for the synthesis of cyclopentenone and its derivatives since its discovery in the early seventies. The aim of this review is to point out the applications of PKR in the total synthesis of terpenes.
