Racemic cyclopropyl ketones undergo enantioselectiverearrangement to deliver the corresponding dihydrofurans in the presence of a chiral phosphoric acid as the catalyst. The reaction involves activation of the donor‐acceptor cyclopropane substrate by the chiral Brønsted acid catalyst to promote the ring‐opening event, thus generating a carbocationic intermediate that subsequently undergoes cyclization
Highly regio- and stereoselective palladium-catalyzed ortho-vinylation of β-naphthols (2) has been reported using easily accessible CF3-allyl carbonates (1). The regioselective nucleophilic γ-attack of the CF3–π-allyl–Pd-intermediate is the key to furnish (Z)-CF3-vinylnaphthols (3) in good yields. Furthermore, we achieved a one-pot synthesis of CF3-naphtho[2,1-b]furans (4) through an uninterrupted
