摘要
Whereas the cycloisomerization of phenyl-substituted alpha-hydroxyallene I to 2,5-dihydrofuran 2 catalyzed by gold(I) or gold(III) chloride takes place with considerable epimerization, high levels of axis-to-center chirality transfer can be reached in the presence of additives (e.g. 2,2'-bipyridine), by using a moderately coordinating solvent (e.g. THF), or by lowering the reaction temperature. The increased stability and selectivity of the catalysts thus formed allows their application to the cycloisomerization of various functionalized alpha- and beta-hydroxyallenes, as well as a decrease of the catalyst loading to 0.1%.
