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.

A novel method is described for the synthesis of carbocyclic spiro-type methylenecyclopropane derivatives via the cyclization of allylepoxides, which are readily available from ketones and 1-chloroalkyl phenyl sulfoxides.
