Abstract

Synthesis of bis-fused benzofuran derivatives by the implementation of palladium-mediated intramolecular cyclization is described. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the synthesis of bis-fused benzofuran by this protocol. Bisbenzoxepine and bisbenzoxocine derivatives were also synthesized by the application of two-directional ring-closing metathesis.

Key words

palladium catalyst - Grubbs catalyst - intramolecular cyclization - two-directional ring-closing metathesis - 5-exo-trig - benzofuran - oxepine - oxocine
