Herein we report a protocol for novel palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of sustainably produced primary furfuryl alcohols with arylboronic acids to deliver 5-arylfurfuryl alcohols and 2,5-diaryl furans. Hammett plot analysis suggested that the reaction mechanism involved aromatization-driven cleavage of the carbon?carbon bond of a furan oxonium ion intermediate. This protocol provides a simple, practical way to transform 5-hydroxymethylfurfural into useful compounds. (Figure presented.).

2-Benzyloxymethyl-5-hydroxymethylfuran was converted, according to the known method, into methyl 1-O-benzyl-3,4-dideoxy-D,L-hex-3-en-2-ulopyranos-5-ulose.Reduction of the latter and hydroxylation or epoxidation, followed by the oxirane ring opening, afforded the title compounds with α-sorbo-, β-fructo-, α-tagato- and α-psico- configuration.The steric course of reduction, hydroxylation and epoxidation reactions were examined.
