A new synthetic methodology for the catalytic CâH functionalisation of 2-pyrones is described which proceeds regioselectively at the C3 position, mirroring the observed regioselectivity in 6Ï-electrocyclisation/oxidative aromatisation reactions of related compounds. Insight into the reaction mechanism is provided, with support for a neutral palladium(II) pathway. Cationic palladium(II) complexes possessing 2-pyrones are unstable and readily undergo PdIIâP transfer at ambient temperature resulting in phosphonium salt formation (and Pd0Ln species).
