4 Domino Reaction! 4! A domino reaction is a process involving two or more bond-forming transformations (usually C-C bonds) which take place under the same reaction conditions without adding additional reagents and catalysts, and in which the subsequent reactions result as a consequence of the functionality formed in the previous step.! L. F. Tietze! Tietze, L. F. Chem. Rev. 1996, 96, !

5 5! Terminologies! Cascade rganic Reaction ne-pot Domino Tandem ne-pot: Without isolation and purification of products.! Cascade: Two or more bonds are formed. Latter transformations take place at the functionalities obtained in the former-bond forming process.! Tandem: Several bonds are formed in sequence, without isolating intermediates, changing reaction conditions, or adding reagents.! icolaou, K. C. et al, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2006, 45, ! Tietze, L. F.
