Figure presented An efficient and facile synthesis of trans- dihydrobenzofurans has been accomplished from o-aminophenols and phenylpropenes via a novel (one-pot) diastereoselective Pd-catalyzed oxyarylation reaction. The development and optimization of this method is described.

Oxidative cycloaddition of a 2-cyclohexenone or α-tetralone and an alkene with dried Mn(OAc)3 in benzene at 80-140 °C provides a general route to dihydrobenzofurans 15 and dihydronaphthofurans 17. Although the yields are modest, this one-pot reaction provides simple access to these compounds, which have previously been prepared by multistep routes. Oxidative cycloaddition of 2-cyclohexenones with β-methylstyrenes provides a new route to benzofuranoid neolignans, which was applied to the synthesis of conocarpan (22). The formation of 2-acetoxyhexanedioic acids 27 and 47 from acetoxylation of 2-cyclohexenones in HOAc, but not in benzene, opens up a new class of Mn(OAc)3 reactions and explains Watt and Demir's discovery that much higher yields of α'-acetoxy enones are obtained in benzene than in HOAc.
