Ring closure of allylic epoxides derived from 1-chloroalkyl phenyl sulfoxides and cyclic ketones with lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) in 3-Exo-Tet mode gave spiro-linked methylenecyclopropanes having a hydroxyl group in good yields.Oxidation of these compounds gave ketones, which were then treated with p-toluenesulfonic acid in 1,4-dioxane or DMSO at 100 deg C to give fused 3-methylfurans in good overall yields.This procedure was applied to a synthesis of menthofuran from 4-methylcyclohexanone.

Treatment of α,β-epoxy sulfoxides, prepared from 1-chloroalkyl phenyl sulfoxides with ketones or aldehydes, with sodium benzeneselenolate gives dialkyl ketones or aldehydes in good yields under mild conditions.The mechanism of this reaction and an application of this process to a formal total synthesis of dihydrojasmone are described.
