Abstract
We have developed a convenient synthetic protocol for efficient construction of significant dihydrobenzofuran and benzofuran scaffolds by Lewis base-mediated annulation reaction ortho-iminophenols and ortho-vinylphenols with MBH carbonates of isatins under mild and metal-free conditions. The selective generation of different kinds of dihydrobenzofuran and benzofuran derivatives was successfully achieved by employing different substituted isatin-derived MBH carbonates with ortho-N-tosyliminophenols and ortho-vinylphenols. The features included broad substrate scopes, excellent functional group compatibility, high molecular diversity, and atomic economy.
