Article Abstract
A domino Cu-catalyzed nucleophilic cyclization and C-C bond activation to access various 3-acylated benzofurans has been developed. The generated benzofuranylcopper intermediate was coupled with cyclopropenone, wherein the ring-opening of cyclopropenone with phenol was effectively suppressed. This strategy features excellent substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, and high atomic economy.

A CFOH-catalysed tandem cyclization of -alkynylnaphthols and -quinone monoketals is disclosed. The CFOH catalyst activates alkynylnaphthol to generate an all-carbon tetrasubstituted VQM by nucleophilic addition to quinone monoketal (Michael addition). Furthermore, the CFOH catalyst triggers -quinone monoketal to generate an electrophilic oxocarbenium cation to be captured by -alkynylnaphthol regiospecifically, resulting in the formation of an all-carbon tetrasubstituted VQM, followed by an intramolecular cyclization to afford a series of 1-(3-arylbenzofuran-2-yl)naphthalen-2-ols.

The stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes has become a key topic in modern organic chemistry. At the same time, trisubstituted alkenes also serve as valuable starting materials for a wide range of transformations. However, it remains unclear to what extent these alkenes are utilized in comparison to their mono- and disubstituted counterparts.

ConspectusAlkynes are one of the most fundamental functional groups in organic synthesis due to the versatile chemistry of the triple bond, their unique rigid structure, and their use in bioconjugation. The introduction of alkynes onto organic molecules traditionally relies on nucleophilic activation, often requiring strong bases or metal catalysts. These conditions, however, restrict applications involving biomolecules such as peptides and proteins due to functional group incompatibility.
