Cu(I)-mediated lactone formation in subcritical water: a benign synthesis of benzopyranones and urolithins A–C
摘要:
Benzopyranones were successfully synthesized using Cu(I)-mediated C-O bond formation in subcritical water. A number of benzopyranone derivatives including polymethoxy benzopyranones, benzopyranopyridones, cbromenoindolones, and furochromenones were synthesized in satisfactory yield. This methodology was further applied to synthesize the intestinal microbial metabolites, urolithins A, B, and C, which were found to exhibit potent antioxidant activity. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Diethylene Glycol Serving as Ethyne Equivalent: A Sustainable Approach toward 2,3-Disubstituted Furan
摘要:
In the presence of tert-butyl peroxide (TBHP), the copper-catalyzed annulation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compound with diethylene glycol was developed leading to 2,3-disubstituted furan. Diethylene glycol serves as a cheap and environmentally friendly equivalent of ethyne, with the release of H2O and alcohol as clean wastes The procedure involves a sequential O- and C-functionalization of beta-ketoester by diethylene glycol.
