title: Pd(II)-catalyzed sequential C-C/C-O bond formations: a new strategy to construct trisubstituted furans.
abstract: Palladium-catalyzed oxidative difunctionalization of enol ethers with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to construct trisubstituted furans in one step under mild conditions is described. The reaction is thought to proceed through a C-C bond formation along with a C-O bond closing the ring structure. Oxygen is the sole oxidant regenerating the Pd(II) catalyst.
