A new, efficient approach toward the preparation of 2-aryl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran scaffolds through the Cu/SPDO-catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloaddition between quinone ester and styrene derivatives has been developed. The procedure features excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee), high yields (up to 96%), and broad substrate tolerance. Additionally, asymmetric synthesis of natural corsifurans A and B from commercially available starting materials has also been achieved in two or three steps using this reaction as a key transformation.
已开发出一种通过铜/SPDO催化的醌酯与苯乙烯衍生物之间的[3+2]环加成反应制备2-芳基-2,3-二氢苯并呋喃骨架的新的高效方法。该方法具有出色的对映选择性(高达99%ee)、高收率(高达96%)和广泛的底物耐受性。此外,还以该反应作为关键转化步骤,通过两到三步从市售起始原料实现了天然产物corsifurans A和B的不对称合成。
