Methods are reported for the efficient assembly of a series of phenol-derived propiolates, including the parent system 56, and their Au(I)-catalyzed cyclization (intramolecular hydroarylation) to give the corresponding coumarins (e.g., 1). Simple syntheses of natural products such as ayapin (144) and scoparone (145) have been realized by such means, and the first of these subject to single-crystal X-ray analysis. A related process is described for the conversion of propargyl ethers such as 156 into the isomeric 2H-chromene precocene I (159), a naturally occurring inhibitor of juvenile hormone biosynthesis.
Lewis acid-catalyzed annulative partial dimerization of 3-aryloxyacrylates to 4-arylchroman-2-ones: Synthesis of analogues of tolterodine, RORγ inhibitors and a GPR40 agonist

A beguiling annulative partial dimerization of 3-aryloxyacrylates to 4-arylchroman-2-ones catalyzed by Lewis acid (BF3·OEt2) has been developed. The reaction involves two molecules of 3-aryloxyacrylate, resulting in the loss of one propiolate molecule to furnish 4-arylchroman-2-one, an important structural motif found in many natural products. This methodology has been elaborated to synthesize analogues of tolterodine, RORγ inhibitors and a GPR40 agonist.

A new method for the smooth and highly efficient preparation of polyalkylated aryl propiolates has been developed. It is based on the formation of the corresponding aryl carbonochloridates (cf Scheme 1 and Table 1) that react with sodium (or lithium) propiolate in THF at 25-65°, with intermediate generation of the mixed anhydrides of the arylcarbonic acids and prop-2-ynoic acid, which then decompose almost quantitatively into CO2 and the aryl propiolates (cf. Scheme 11). This procedure is superior to the transformation of propynoic acid into its difficult-to-handle acid chloride, which is then reacted with sodium (or lithium) arenolates. A number of the polyalkylated aryl propiolates were subjected to flash vacuum pyrolysis (FVP) at 600-650°and 10-2 Torr which led to the formation of the corresponding cyclohepta[b]furan-2(2H)-ones in average yields of 25-45% (cf. Scheme 14). It has further been found in pilot experiments that the polyalkylated cyclohepta[b]furan-2(2H)-ones react with 1-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)cyclohexene in toluene at 120-130°to yield the corresponding 1,2,3,4- tetrahydrobenz[a]azulenes, which become, with the growing number of Me groups at the seven-membered ring, more and more sensitive to oxidative destruction by air (cf. Scheme 15).
