An efficient and environmentally benign heterogeneous catalytic process for the synthesis of 2,3-unsubstituted benzo[b]furans has been established via the intramolecular cyclization of 2-aryloxyacetaldehyde acetals. By utilizing tin-exchanged H-β zeolite (Sn-β) as catalyst, a wide range of functionalized 2,3-unsubstituted benzo[b]furans could be prepared in good to excellent yields. The Sn-β zeolite catalyst also exhibited excellent shape selectivity on the cyclization of meta-substituted 2-aryloxyacetaldehyde acetals, and 6-substituted isomers were preferably formed up to 97% regio-selectivity. Moreover, Sn-β zeolite could be easily recovered and reused without any noticeable activity loss.

A series of different furan-yn-ols were prepared by a three-step sequence. Their reaction with Gagosz's catalyst Ph3PAuNTf2 depends strongly on the substitution pattern of the substrate and the quality of the leaving group. Benzofurans, alkylidenecyclopentenones or Meyer-Schuster type products can be obtained. Improving the leaving group quality leads to the preferred formation of benzofurans.
