A Practical Synthesis of Rosefuran. Furans from Acetylenes and Allyl Alcohols
摘要:
A new atom-economical synthetic strategy for the synthesis of furans emerges from beta,gamma-unsaturated ketones which are readily available from acetylenes and allyl alcohols by simple additions in the presence of a ruthenium catalyst. Dihydroxylation using catalytic osmium tetraoxide creates a diol that is remarkably prone to cyclize to furans in the presence of an acid catalyst. The novelty of this synthesis lies in the overall strategy whereby furans are available in two steps from allyl alcohols and acetylenes with only water as the byproduct. A straightforward synthesis of the prized fragrance of oil of rose, rosefuran, from propargyl bromide, acetone, and 1-buten-3-ol in 23% overall yield illustrates the utility of this new strategy.
