A novel and convenient approach to furan-3-carboxylic esters 2 is presented, based on palladium-catalyzed direct oxidative carbonylation of readily available 3-yne-1,2-diols 1. The process, corresponding to a sequential combination between a 5-endo-dig heterocyclodehydration step and an oxidative alkoxycarbonylation stage, is catalyzed by PdI2 in conjunction with an excess of KI under relatively mild conditions (100 °C in ROH under 40 atm of a 4:1 mixture of CO-air).

A variety of 3-yne-1,2-diol derivatives 1, bearing a primary or secondary alcoholic group at C-1, have been efficiently converted into high value added furan-3-carboxylic esters 2 in one step by PdI2/KI-catalyzed direct oxidative carbonylation, carried out in alcoholic media under relatively mild conditions (100 °C under 40 atm of a 4/1 mixture of CO and air). Carbonylated furans 2 were obtained in fair to excellent isolated yields (56-93%) through a sequential 5-endo-dig heterocyclization-alkoxycarbonylation- dehydration process, using only oxygen as the external oxidant. Under similar conditions, 2-methyl-3-yne-1,2-diols 3, bearing a tertiary alcoholic group, afforded 4-methylene-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates 4 in satisfactory yields (58-70%).
