regiocontrolled synthesis of a multisubstitutedfuran is achieved through Pd(OAc)2‐catalyzed room‐temperature condensation of an alkynylbenziodoxole, a carboxylicacid, and an enolizable ketimine, which contribute to C1, CO, and C2 fragments, respectively, to the furan skeleton. The reaction tolerates a broad range of functional groups in each of the reaction components, and enables highly modular and flexible
A novel oxygen-atom-transfer process enables the catalytic [2 + 2 + 1] synthesis of bicyclic furans from alpha,omega-diynes with DMSO. [CpRu(AN)(3)]PF6 catalyzed the transfer oxygenative cyclization of diynes with aryl terminal groups, while those of diynes with alkyl terminal groups were effectively promoted by the corresponding Cp* complex. A mechanism for bicyclic furan formation via a ruthenacyclopentatriene was proposed on the basis of both experimental and theoretical studies.
