Abstract

Abstract By the catalytic use of a rhenium(I) nitrogen complex, [ReCl(N2)(PMe2Ph)4], α-keto radicals are generated from α-bromo ketones and react with vinyl ethers and silyl enol ethers intermolecularly. Various substituted furans, including tetrasubstituted furans such as furoguaiacin, are prepared by this method.
