ω-Acetylenic alcohols are regio- and stereo-selectively converted to the corresponding α-alkylidene oxygenated heterocycles in the presence of catalytic amounts of AuCl and K2CO3.

Benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide act as an efficient metal-free catalyst for the intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of alkynes. Notably, the use of microwave irradiation allowed reaction to operate in only two minutes. Under optimized reaction conditions, linear alkynes bearing aryl and heteroaryl substituents were successfully cyclized with good level of stereoselectivity.

Mixed s-block metal organometallic reagents have been successfully utilised in the catalytic intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of alkynols. This success has been attributed to the unique manner in which these reagents can overcome the challenges of the reaction: namely OH activation and coordination to and then addition across a CC bond. In order to optimise the reaction conditions and to garner vital catalytic system requirements, a series of alkali metal magnesiates were enlisted for the catalytic intramolecular hydroalkoxylation of 4-pentynol. In a prelude to the main investigation, the homometallic magnesium dialkyl reagent MgR2 (where R = CH2SiMe3) was utilised. This reagent was unsuccessful in cyclising the alcohol into 2-methylenetetrahydrofuran 2a or 5-methyl-2,3-dihydrofuran 2b, even in the presence of multidentate Lewis donor molecules such as N,N,N′,N′′,N′′-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA). Alkali metal magnesiates MIMgR3 (when MI = Li, Na or K) performed the cyclisation unsatisfactorily both in the absence/presence of N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) or PMDETA. When higher-order magnesiates (i.e., MI2MgR4) were employed, in general a marked increase in yield was observed for MI = Na or K; however, the reactions were still sluggish with long reaction times (22-36 h). A major improvement in the catalytic activity of the magnesiates was observed when the crown ether molecule 15-crown-5 was combined with sodium magnesiate Na2MgR4(TMEDA)2 furnishing yields of 87% with 2a:2b ratios of 95:5 after 5 h. Similar high yields of 88% with 2a:2b ratios of 90:10 after 3 h were obtained combining 18-crown-6 with potassium magnesiate K2MgR4(PMDETA)2. Having optimised these systems, substrate scope was examined to probe the range and robustness of 18-crown-6/K2MgR4(PMDETA)2 as a catalyst. A wide series of alkynols, including terminal and internal alkynes which contain a variety of potentially reactive functional groups, were cyclised. In comparison to previously reported monometallic systems, bimetallic 18-crown-6/K2MgR4(PMDETA)2 displays enhanced reactivity towards internal alkynol-cyclisation. Kinetic studies revealed an inhibition effect of substrate on the catalysts via adduct formation and requiring dissociation prior to the rate limiting cyclisation step.
Regioselectivity Influences in Platinum-Catalyzed Intramolecular Alkyne O-H and N-H Additions

The steric and electronic drivers of regioselectivity in platinum-catalyzed intramolecular hydroalkoxylation are elucidated. A branch point is found that divides the process between 5-exo and 6-endo selective processes, and enol ethers can be accessed in good yields for both oxygen heterocycles. The main influence arises from an electronic effect, where the alkyne substituent induces a polarization of the alkyne that leads to preferential heteroatom attack at the more electron-deficient carbon. The electronic effects are studied in other contexts, including hydroacyloxylation and hydroamination, and similar trends in directionality are predominant although not uniformly observed.
Alkaline earth catalysis of alkynyl alcohol hydroalkoxylation/cyclization

Heavier alkaline earth bis(trimethylsilyl)amides [Ae{N(SiMe 3)2}2]2 (Ae = Ca, Sr, Ba) are shown to act as effective precatalysts for the regioselective intramolecular hydroalkoxylation/cyclization of a wide range of alkynyl and allenyl alcohols. In the majority of cases, cyclization of alkynyl alcohols produces mixtures of the possible endo- and exocyclic enol ether products, rationalized as a consequence of alkynylalkoxide isomerization to the corresponding allene derivatives. Cyclization rates for terminal alkynyl alcohols were found to be significantly higher than for substrates bearing internal alkynyl substituents, while the efficacy of cyclization was in general found to be determined by a combination of stereoelectronic influences and the thermochemical viability of the specific alkaline earth metal catalysis, which we suggest is determined by the individual M-O bond strengths. Kinetic studies have provided a rate law pertaining to a pronounced catalyst inhibition with increasing [substrate], indicating that turnover-limiting insertion of C-C unsaturation into the M-O bond requires the dissociation of substrate molecules away from the Lewis acidic alkaline earth center.

(Chemical Equation Presented) TMSOTf-mediated reactions of 2-aryl-1-(1-phenylcyclopropyl)ethanones 1 with allenic esters afford a novel method for the synthesis of 6-methyl-3a,7-diaryl-3,3a-dihydro-2H-benzofuran-4- one derivatives 2 in moderate yields. In addition, we also found that TMSOTf-mediated reactions of 1-cyclopropyl-2-arylethanones with ethyl acetoacetate can provide the corresponding 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-4-ol and dihydrofuro[2,3-h]chromen-2-one in moderate yields via a sequential reaction involving a nucleophilic ring-opening reaction of the cyclopropane by H 2O, one intermolecular aldol type reaction and two intramolecular aldol type reactions, a cyclic transesterification, dehydration, and aromatization. Moreover, by using methyl acrylate to replace allenic ester, the corresponding 7-aryl-3,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-benzofuran-4-one and 5-aryl-3,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-benzofuran-4-one can be formed in moderate to high yields in the presence of Bi(OTf)2Cl. Plausible reaction mechanisms have also been provided on the basis of control experiments.
