Asymmetric Synthesis of 2,3-Dihydrobenzofurans by a [4+1] Annulation Between Ammonium Ylides and In Situ Generated o-Quinone Methides.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: A highly enantio- and diastereoselective [4+1] annulation between in situ generated ammonium ylides and o-quinone methides for the synthesis of a variety of 2,3-dihydrobenzofurans has been developed. The key factors controlling the reactivity and stereoselectivity were systematically investigated by experimental and computational means and the energy profiles obtained provide a deeper insight into the mechanistic details of this reaction.
