The reactions are conducted under convenient conditions and provide products with excellent regioselectivity in good to excellent yields, with broad substrate scope. This protocol is an alternative to conventional a-halogenation of ketones.展开更多
A convenient and efficient method was developed for the synthesis of naphtho[2,1-blfurans via 4-dimethylaminopyridine(DMAP)-catalyzed cascade reaction of 2-hydroxy-l-naphthaldehydes and a-halogenated ketones in mode...A convenient and efficient method was developed for the synthesis of naphtho[2,1-blfurans via 4-dimethylaminopyridine(DMAP)-catalyzed cascade reaction of 2-hydroxy-l-naphthaldehydes and a-halogenated ketones in moderate to good yields in the presence of Na2CO3 at 80 ~C for 6 h. The mechanism for this process was briefly discussed with a tentative catalytic cycle proposed. Moreover, this method features organocatalysts and high step-economy, which makes it practical and attractive.展开更多
