Abstract

3-Alkynyl-2-(methylsulfanyl)benzo[b]furans were readily prepared under mild reaction conditions by palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of 3-iodo-2-(methylsulfanyl)benzo[b]furans with a variety of terminal alkynes. The reaction was performed with propargyl alcohols, protected propargyl alcohols, as well as alkyl and aryl terminal alkynes. In addition, the 3-alkynylbenzo[b]furans obtained were readily transformed into more complex products using the hydrotelluration reaction, which furnished the desired vinylic tellurides in good yields. Moreover, using a copper-catalyzed homocoupling reaction, we were able to convert a 3-alkynylbenzo[b]furan into a symmetric diyne in good yield.

Key words

palladium - Sonogashira cross-coupling - furans - alkynes - catalysis
