Acid-catalyzed tandem reactions of atropaldehyde acetals were established for the synthesis of three important molecules, 2,2-disubstituted indolin-3-ones, naphthofurans and stilbenes. The synthesis was realized using novel reaction cascades, which involved the same two initial steps: (i) SN2′ substitution, in which the atropaldehyde acted as an electrophile; and (ii) oxidative cleavage of the carbon-carbon bond of the generated phenylacetaldehyde-type products. Compared with literature methods, the present protocol not only avoided the use of expensive noble metal catalysts, but also enabled a simple operation.
Ionic liquids accelerating cycloaddition between 1-aryl-2-halocyclopropenes and furan

Treatment of a series of 1-aryl-2,2-dihalocyclopropanes with t-BuOK at-10 °C gave the corresponding 1-aryl-2-halocyclopropenes, which react with furan in a RTIL to give a fair good yield of the [4+2]-cycloadducts with more than 90% of the exo-isomer. The imidazolium type ionic liquids are able to accelerate this cycloaddition process with high steric selectivity. Neither pyrrole nor thiophene undergoes the cycloaddition with cyclopropene to form the [4+2]-cycloadduct. 1-Aryl-3,3-difluoro-2-halocyclopropenes are inert towards furan even at a temperature higher than 100 °C.
