Butenolides, obtained by ring-closing metathesis (RCM) of acrylates, undergo quantitative deprotonation with amide bases. Trapping of the resulting anions with electrophiles, for example, chlorophosphates, give furans. Subsequent Diels-Alder reaction and acid-catalysed rearrangement of the resulting oxabicyclonorbornadienes give substituted benzenes.
