Abstract
An efficient method for the enantioselective synthesis of 2,3-dihydrofurans bearing a quaternary stereocenter has been developed via Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic cycloaddition and a retro-Dieckmann Fragmentation cascade. The asymmetric allylic cycloaddition of vinylethylene carbonates with 3-cyanochromone followed by base-assisted retro-Dieckmann fragmentation proceeded smoothly via a one-pot process to produce chiral 3,4-disubstituted 2,3-dihydrofurans in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities.
