By using chiral auxiliaries and hydrogen bonding interactions, we have developed diastereoselective photocycloaddition of 2-naphthalenecarboxylates and 2,3-naphthalenedicarboxylates with furan derivatives. In photoreactions of (?)-menthyl 2-naphthalenecarboxylate with furan and 3-furanmethanol, respective maximum 48% and 40% diastereomeric excesses (d.e.) are observed. In photoreactions of di-8-phenyl-(?)-menthyl 2,3-naphthalenedicarboxylate with 3-furanmethanol, maximum 67% d.e. is obtained. Use of solvents of low polarity, low temperatures and low furan concentration leads to increased diastereoselectivities. Variable-temperature (VT) NMR and fluorescence quenching studies indicate that hydrogen bonding interactions between the carbonyl oxygen of naphthalenecarboxylic acid esters and the OH group in 3-furanmethanol take place in both the ground and excited states. The results of computational studies show that geometries of C2 symmetric naphthalenedicarboxylate reactants are important in governing the high diastereoselectivity in the photoreactions of 2,3-naphthalenedicarboxylates.

Several C-3 substituted furans with chelating groups have been reacted with 2,3-dibromo-3-pentanone in the presence of a reducing metal, resulting in the formation of [4+3]-cycloadducts with complete cis-trans and endo-exo diastereoselectivity and in excellent yield. A certain variability of the conversion and reaction yield could be observed, when changing the reaction conditions, but in all cases the stereoselectivity was complete, compared to that of C-3 substituted furans with non-chelating groups. Also, a general method of assignment of stereochemistry of cycloadducts has been established by NMR, considering diagnostic patterns of signals with different multiplicity and chemical shifts depending on the stereochemistry of diastereomeric cycloadducts.

Various 2-alkynylallyl alcohols were synthesized by a generally applicable Sonogashira coupling protocol. Subsequent gold-catalyzed transformation was investigated. The use of AuI catalysts bearing carbene ligands, of either the N-heterocyclic carbene or nitrogen acyclic carbene type, delivered the desired products with low catalyst loadings and under very mild reaction conditions. A broad array of substrates was tested, including alkyl-, alkenyl-, and aryl-substituted alkynes, as well as substrates with two alkynyl moieties. The methodology turned out to have a broad scope. Secondary allyl alcohols were also tolerated, and the resulting trisubstituted furans could be isolated in high yields. Easily accessible 2-alkynylallyl alcohols were transformed into highly substituted furans under very mild reaction conditions by the use of gold(I)-carbene catalysts. A broad range of substrates could be transformed in high yields and within short reaction times.
