Cu-Catalyzed tandem cyclization and coupling of enynones with enaminones for multisubstituted furans & furano-pyrroles.

A synthetic strategy that efficiently constructs complex molecular diversity in a few steps will always be embraced by organic chemists. Here, we report a cascade reaction of enynones with enaminones carbene insertion and aryl migration to engineer distinctive multisubstituted furans with an all-carbon quaternary center, and could extend the protocol in the same pot towards furano-pyrrole bis-heterocycles. Heterogeneity of this protocol was proved with the upshot of divergent chemical space under a relatively mild reaction environment.
