Substituted pyrans and furans are core structures found in a wide variety of natural products and biologically active compounds. Herein, we report a practical and mild catalytic method for the synthesis of substituted pyrans and furansusing molecular iodine, a simple and inexpensive catalyst. The method described is performed under solvent-free conditions at an ambient temperature and atmosphere,

synthesis of 3-carboxy-2,5-disubstituted furans is reported proceeding via a 5-exo-dig cycloisomerization reaction. The iron(III) chloride-catalyzed transformation of aryl- and alkyl β-ketoesters enables synthetic access to functionalized furan core structures found in many natural products and complex molecules of biological importance. The method described herein, represents a mild and efficient alternative
Under the acidic conditions, substituted furans were constructed from γ-alkynyl ketones through corresponding allene intermediates in one-pot. The methodology was also tailored to a series of the Ugi reaction products for the synthesis of 6-methylpyrazin-2(1H)-one derivatives. The current method offered significant advantages for the combinatorial applications of these chemical scaffolds.
