Lewis acid-promoted cyclizations of heteroatom-substituted enynes have been examined. The reaction of enynes and bearing silicon substituents on an alkyne afforded the halogenated five-membered gamma-lactones and gamma-lactams as the main products. The reaction of substrates and having 2-phosphonoacrylate instead of malonate also gave halogenated five-membered cyclic compounds and as the major products. The cyclized products are highly substituted and potentially useful for further synthetic transformations.
