Intramolecular Büchner reaction of 1-diazo-5-phenylpentan-2-ones followed by oxidation with SeO2 or O2 in the presence of silica gel regioselectively gave 8-formyl-1-tetralones or one-carbon-lacking 1-tetralones, respectively.

Intramolecular hydroarylationviaC-H activation is one of the most powerful methods to synthesize carbo- and heterocyclic compounds, whereas we still have room for developing a highly enantioselective variant of the reaction. Here we describe Ir-catalyzed enantioselective intramolecular hydroarylation ofm-allyloxyphenyl ketones. The enantioselective cyclization was efficiently catalyzed by a cationic iridium complex coordinated with a conventional chiral bisphosphine ligand to give benzofurans in high yields with high enantioselectivity. A carbonyl group of ketones functioned as an effective directing group for the C-H activation. In terms of synthetic utility, we also achieved one-pot synthesis of chiral 3-substituted dihydrobenzofurans from readily available allylic carbonates andm-hydroxyacetophenonesviasequential Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution and Ir-catalyzed intramolecular hydroarylation.
