The substituted benzene derivatives are essential to organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and material science. However, the 1,3-di- 1,3,5-trisubstituted benzenes far less prevalent in small-molecule drugs than other substitution patterns, likely due lack of robust, efficient, convenient synthetic methods. Here, we report a Mo-catalyzed intermolecular deoxygenative benzene-forming reaction readily available ynones allylic amines. A wide range unsymmetric unfunctionalized were obtained up 88% yield by using commercially molybdenum catalyst. potential method was further illustrated transformations, scale-up derivatization bioactive molecules. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggested that this process might proceed through aza-Michael addition/[1,5]-hydride shift/cyclization/aromatization cascade. This strategy not only provided facile, modular approach various meta-substituted but also demonstrated catalysis challenging cross-coupling reactions.
