title: A direct approach to 5-hydroxybenzofurans via a platinum-catalyzed domino rearrangement/5-endo-dig cyclization reaction of quinols.
abstract: A highly efficient and atom-economical construction of 2-substituted 5-hydroxybenzofurans was accomplished by employing a platinum-catalyzed domino dienone-phenol rearrangement/5-endo-dig cyclization reaction of quinols bearing alkynes.
