Abstract

Treatment of a solution of the (E)-enynone 17 in methanol with AgNO3 leads to cyclisation and isolation of the substituted furan 25 in >95% yield, rather than the anticipated exo-enol ether-cyclic ketal structure 24. By contrast, a similar Ag-mediated cyclisation of the related substituted enynone 20 led to the exo-enol ether-cyclic ketal structure 28 (50%) alongside the substituted furan 29 (45%). The outcomes of these silver-assisted enynone cyclisations are compared and contrasted with earlier studies with acid-catalysed reactions of furanoepoxides, for example 7, which also lead to exo-enol ether-cyclic ketals, viz. 1, and to substituted furanmethanol products, that is, 10.
