Domino construction of a bullataketal core via double bond cleavage in activated dihydrofurans
Keyword(s):
A new rapid approach to structurally challenging and biologically relevant methanobenzodioxepines was developed via a Brønsted acid-triggered domino transformation of 3-carbonyl-4,5-dihydrofurans, substituted with MOM-protected o-hydroxyaryls at the C4 atom.
