Conclusions
• The availability and diversity of commercially available pyridines, the exceptionally mild conditions under which cycloaddition occurs, and the ease with which the tungsten fragment can be resolved make the dearomatization of pyridines a potentially valuable new synthetic tool.
• Although the preliminary data suggest that the methodology may be limited to 2-substituted pyridines, the authors are currently exploring a full range of pyridines and their proclivity to undergo cycloaddition reactions.
