lignan (+)-linoxepin 1 using domino C–H functionalization with an overall yield of 30 %. This synthesis is the first reported application of the palladium-catalyzed Catellani reaction in the synthesis of a complex natural product. We note that the optical rotation of the synthetic material is higher (

ACADEMIC........................
The Catellani reaction was devised by Marta Catellani. It is Norbornene-mediated Ortho C-H functionalization consisting series of reaction.[1] Norbornene acts as a catalyst in this reaction.[2]

Reaction mechanism
Catellani reaction consist of a series of reaction and Norbornene acts as the catalyst in this reaction along with Palladium.[3] Rhodium can also be used as a catalyst along with Norbornene instead of Palladium.[4]
Different Steps of catellani reaction: 1. Oxidative addition 2. Carbopalledation with Norbornene 3. Palladocycle formation 4. Oxidative addition 5. Reductive elimination 6. Norbornene extrusion 7. Termination
Uses
Catellani reaction is used for polyfunctionalization of aromatic molecule. It has been used as a key step for synthesis of novel lignan (+)- linoxepin.[5] It can also be used for synthesis of Rhazinal.[6]References
