Copper-catalysed benzofuran synthesis: developing aryl bromide-alkenyl triflates as general heterocycle precursors
Tadd, Andrew C.,Fielding, Mark R.,Willis, Michael C.
, p. 7578 - 7581 (2007)
A range of conjugated aryl bromide-alkenyl triflates, previously described as indole precursors, are efficiently converted to the corresponding benzofurans when treated with CuI/TMEDA and potassium hydroxide.

Catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) is one of the most effective methods to upgrade the oxygen-containing compounds derived from coal tar to valuable hydrocarbons. Herein, an efficient bimetallic catalyst Pt1Ni4/MgO was prepared and applied in the HDO of dibenzofuran (DBF). High yield (95%) of the desired product bicyclohexane (BCH) was achieved at 240 °C and 1.2 MPa of H2. Superior catalytic performance could be ascribed to the “relay catalysis” of Pt sites and Ni sites, and the reaction pathway is proposed as well. Scale-up experiment and recyclability test were also performed, which demonstrated the recyclability and promising potential application of Pt1Ni4/MgO.
Direct C-H α-Arylation of Enones with ArI(O2CR)2 Reagents

α-Arylation of α,β-unsaturated ketones constitutes a powerful synthetic transformation. It is most commonly achieved via cross-coupling of α-haloenones, but this stepwise strategy requires prefunctionalized substrates and expensive catalysts. Direct enone C-H α-arylation would offer an atom- and step-economical alternative, but such reports are scarce. Herein we report the metal-free direct C-H arylation of enones mediated by hypervalent iodine reagents. The reaction proceeds via a reductive iodonium Claisen rearrangement of in situ-generated β-pyridinium silyl enol ethers. The aryl groups are derived from ArI(O2CCF3)2 reagents, which are readily accessed from the parent iodoarenes. The reaction is tolerant of a wide range of substitution patterns, and the incorporated arenes maintain the valuable iodine functional handle. Mechanistic investigations implicate arylation via an umpoled "enolonium" species and show that the presence of a β-pyridinium moiety is critical for the desired C-C bond formation.
Titanium tetrachloride promoted cyclodehydration of aryloxyketones: Facile synthesis of benzofurans and naphthofurans with high regioselectivity

An efficient and facile method for the synthesis of a broad series of benzofurans and naphthofurans is described. The direct intramolecular cyclodehydration of aryloxyketones in the presence of titanium tetrachloride affords the corresponding benzofurans and naphthofurans with good regioselectivity and yields.
