The olefin isomerization/enantioselective intramolecular Alder-ene reaction cascade was achieved by using a cationic rhodium(I)/(R)-BINAP complex as a catalyst. A variety of substituted dihydrobenzofurans and dihydronaphthofurans were obtained from phenol- or naphthol-linked 1,7-enynes, respectively, with good yields and ee values.

A novel strategy for the synthesis of (E)-3-((arylsulfonyl)methyl)-4-substituted benzylidenechromene derivatives via a metal-free radical annulation reaction of oxygen-containing 1,7-enynes with thiosulfonates has been developed. The reaction shows broad substrate scope, wide functional group tolerance, and moderate to excellent yields. Moreover, thiosulfonates were well driven to achieve the bifunctionalization
