Cyclization reactions through cationic intermediates have become a highly valuable tool in organic synthesis. The use of alkynes as the terminating group in this type of cationic process offers wide synthetic possibilities because this group can serve as a precursor of different functionalities. This article shows relevant examples of cationic cyclization reactions with alkynes as terminating groups with the intention of demonstrating the potential of this type of process, particularly in the context of biomimetic synthesis of natural products.

Keywords: cyclization reactions; cationic cyclization; cyclization; biomimetic synthesis; terminating groups
