An alternative catalyst system has been found for the domino cycloisomerization/cyclocondensation reaction involving acetylenic acids and heterodinucleophiles. A CNN pincer palladium(II) complex, acting as a homogeneous catalyst, provides the corresponding polyheterocycles with a higher substrate/catalyst ratio. Other palladium sources were also tested and discarded, and a number of mechanistic studies including poisoning assays, kinetic plots, TEM images, XRD spectra and UPLC-MS analysis of reaction intermediates were conducted in order to shed light on the role of this pincer catalyst and the catalytic cycle involved in the cascade reaction. As a result, a more nuanced mechanism is tentatively proposed.
