A novel platinum-catalyzed double heterocyclization of propargylic ethers is described. The transformation exploits the intermediacy of a key α,β-unsaturated carbene. The reactivity of this carbene is such that systems can be developed which avoid a complicating 1,2-hydrogen migration, allowing remarkable versatility in the selective syntheses of oxygen- and nitrogen-containing vicinal bis-heterocyclic compounds.

β-(Phosphatoxy)alkyl radicals generated by photolysis of Barton PTOC esters in the presence of allyl alcohol and tert-butyl mercaptan undergo nucleophilic substitution followed by 5-exo-trig radical ring closure leading to tetrahydrofurans in good yield and with high trans selectivity. β- (Phosphatoxy)alkyl radicals obtained by intramolecular hydrogen 1,5- abstraction with an alkoxyl radical undergo nucleophilic displacement providing tetrahydrofurans. The ensemble of results, including the effects of leaving groups and substituents, strongly support a dissociative mechanism for these radical nucleophilic displacement reactions.
Synthesis of tetrahydrofurans by a tandem hydrogen atom abstraction/ radical nucleophilic displacement sequence

(equation presented) The reaction of a series of 5-(N-phthalimidoxy)-1-phenyl-1-(diphenylphosphatoxy)pentanes with triphenyltin hydride and AIBN provides alkoxy radicals which undergo 1,5-hydrogen atom abstraction to give β-(phosphatoxy)alkyl radicals. These radicals then take part in a radical nucleophilic displacement leading, after chain transfer, to tetrahydrofurans.
