Regioselective Synthesis of Multisubstituted Furans via Copper-Mediated Coupling between Ketones and β-Nitrostyrenes.
A copper-mediated intermolecular annulation of alkyl ketones and β-nitrostyrenes has been developed for the regioselective synthesis of multisubstituted furan derivatives in good yields. This protocol is applicable to both cyclic and acyclic ketones.
