A one-pot tandem Wittig/conjugate reduction/Paal-Knorr reaction is reported for the synthesis of di- or trisubstituted furans. This novel sequence first demonstrates the possibility of successively recycling waste from upstream steps to catalyze downstream reactions.

A Bronsted acid-catalyzed method to prepare tri- and tetrasubstituted furans efficiently from cycloisomerization of but-2-yne-1,4-diols with or without 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds is described. By taking advantage of the orthogonal modes of reactivity of the alcoholic substrate through slight modification of the reaction conditions, a divergence in product selectivity was observed. At room temperature, p-TsOH?H 2O-mediated tandem alkylation/cycloisomerization of the propargylic 1,4-diol with the β-dicarbonyl compound was found to selectively occur to provide the tetrasubstituted furan product. On the other hand, increasing the reaction temperature to 80 °C was discovered to result in preferential p-TsOH?H2O-catalyzed dehydrative rearrangement of the unsaturated alcohol and formation of the 2,3,5-trisubstituted furan adduct.
