been achieved using imines as reagents and potassium tert-butoxide as the catalyst. Depending on the solvent used, the reaction proceeds by two pathways. In THF, an addition/elimination reaction of exo-cyclic enol ethers with imines provides dihydroisobenzofuranderivatives in good yield. In DMSO, an addition/ring-opening/cyclization cascade reaction occurs with unexpected cleavage of C–O and C–C bonds
