- Zeolite-catalyzed synthesis of 2,3-unsubstituted benzo[b]furans via the intramolecular cyclization of 2-aryloxyacetaldehyde acetals
-
An efficient and environmentally benign heterogeneous catalytic process for the synthesis of 2,3-unsubstituted benzo[b]furans has been established via the intramolecular cyclization of 2-aryloxyacetaldehyde acetals. By utilizing tin-exchanged H-β zeolite (Sn-β) as catalyst, a wide range of functionalized 2,3-unsubstituted benzo[b]furans could be prepared in good to excellent yields. The Sn-β zeolite catalyst also exhibited excellent shape selectivity on the cyclization of meta-substituted 2-aryloxyacetaldehyde acetals, and 6-substituted isomers were preferably formed up to 97% regio-selectivity. Moreover, Sn-β zeolite could be easily recovered and reused without any noticeable activity loss.

- Rhodium-catalyzed cycloisomerization: Formation of indoles, benzofurans, and enol lactones
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Internal affairs: Indoles, benzofurans, and enol lactones are formed chemoselectively from the rhodium-catalyzed cyclo-isomerization reaction of easily prepared alkynyl aniline substrates (see scheme, cod = cycloocta-1,5-diene, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide). The reaction may proceed by nucleophilic capture of a vinylidene intermediate. Indoles are formed under mild conditions using low catalyst loadings.
