title: Electrophile-induced cyclization/migration reaction for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-5-iodopyran-4-one.
abstract: A novel method for the construction of 2,3-dihydro-5-iodopyran-4-one through a domino cyclization/migration reaction of 1-alkynyl-2,3-epoxy alcohol was developed. Wet solvent is essential for this reaction. The resulting iodine-containing product can be readily elaborated to more complex products by using known organopalladium chemistry.
