Abstract
Abstract
In this article, we discuss about the importance of Tellurium (Te) in organic synthesis. Tellurium-induced cyclization of alkenyl compounds, as well as alkynyl compounds, are considered for the study. The developments in this area are incorporated in great detail. The mechanism of the reactions does not follow any straightforward process. This study opens up the possibility of stereocontrolled synthesis of complex natural products.
