Reactions based on transition-metal-catalyzed C-O bond cleavage have attracted much attention as a new synthetic method. Until now, several intermolecular reactions via C-O bond cleavage of aryl ethers, alkenyl ethers, esters, and others have been reported. Here we report an unprecedented C-O bond cleavage of 3-phenoxy acrylic acid derivatives, followed by intramolecular C-O bond formation with alkynes. This reaction gave 2,3-disubstituted benzofurans having useful functional groups-silyl substituents and acrylic acid derivatives- A t the 2- A nd 3-positions, respectively. This report also described theoretical (DFT) insights into the mechanism.

Lactones are known to react with the reagent generated in situ from CCl4 and PPh3 in a Wittig-type fashion to give gem-dichloro-olefin derivatives. Such compounds are now shown to undergo reductive alkylation on treatment with organolithium reagents RLi to furnish acetylene derivatives bearing the substituent R at their termini (R=Me, n-, sec-, tert-alkyl, silyl); the reaction can be catalyzed with either Cu(acac)2 or Fe(acac)3/1,2-diaminobenzene. Two alkynol derivatives prepared in this way from readily accessible lactone precursors served as the key building blocks for the total syntheses of the cytotoxic marine macrolides tulearin A (1) and C (2). The assembly of these fragile targets hinged upon ring closing alkyne metathesis (RCAM) followed by a formal trans-reduction of the resulting cycloalkynes via trans-hydrosilylation/protodesilylation.
