Synthesis of furocoumarins via rhodium(II)-catalysed heterocyclisation of 3-diazobenzopyran-2,4(3H)-dione with terminal alkynes

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The rhodium (II) acetate-catalysed decomposition of 3-diazobenzopyran-2,4(3H)-dione in the presence of a terminal alkyne gave rise to a mixture of isomeric 2-substituted furo[3,2c]coumarin and furo[2,3-b]coumarin, resulting from a formal [3+2] cycloaddition.
