The preparation of chiral salicylaldehydes based on Kagan's ether

Two related routes to chiral salicylaldehydes which are derivatives of Kagan's ether have been developed. One route which is particularly simple begins with 2,6-diallylphenol. Facile conversion to a substituted benzofuran and assemblage of the basic framework of Kagan's ether is followed by an ozonolysis of the benzofuran ring to reveal the hydroxyaldehyde functionality characteristic of salicylaldehydes.
