Abstract
AbstractA one-pot linkage between furan and 3(2H)-furanone rings has been effected via the microwave-assisted Et3N-catalyzed domino condensation of the furan and benzofuran carboxylic acids with available cyanopropargylic alcohols (MeCN, 100 °C, 1.2 atm, 2–17 h). Despite involving a number of C-H-forming/breaking steps, the assembly is chemoselective and the final products, 5-(2-furyl)-3(2H)-furanones, are formed in 59–96% yields.
