A ruthenium-catalyzed intramolecular cascade cyclization of allene-alkyne has been achieved. This method offers a streamlined and atom-economical approach for the construction sulfone bearing 1H-cyclopenta[a]naphthalenes, an important structural scaffold that exists in biologically active compounds. Our approach, backed by mechanistic insights from deuterium labeling, DFT calculations, potential reaction scale-up, presents synthetic chemists with invaluable tool efficiently producing distinct carbon framework one-pot manner. protocol is operationally simple, exhibiting broad substrate scope consistently high yields.
