Palladium-Catalyzed\nOxidative Cyclization of <i>O</i>‑Aryl Cyclic Vinylogous\nEsters: Synthesis of Benzofuran-Fused\nCyclohexenones
This study presents a method for synthesizing functionalized\nhydrodibenzofuran\nderivatives. Using palladium catalysis, <i>O</i>-aryl cyclic\nvinylogous esters undergo dehydrogenative intramolecular arylation\nat the vinylic carbon. Preliminary kinetic isotope effect studies\nsuggest that the C(aryl)–H bond cleavage may be the rate-determining\nstep.
