Abstract
DMA donates: Copper(II) acetate and 8-hydroxyquinoline promote the formation of a benzofuran core through a cascade of copper-catalyzed processes wherein the key carbon atom comes from the dimethylacetamide (DMA) solvent. Strong evidence for the participation of a Wacker cyclization catalyzed solely by copper is provided, not only in the title reaction from benzophenones but also from 2-hydroxy-α-arylstyrene derivatives.
