Lewis-Acid-Catalyzed Regioselective Construction of Diversely Functionalized Polycyclic Fused Furans.

A novel, facile, and efficient Lewis-acid-catalyzed [4 + 1] annulation protocol for the construction of functionalized polycyclic-fused furans is developed. This methodology is free of transition metals and ligands and provides a rapid synthetic route to divergently orientated polycyclic furans in good yields. In addition, this protocol can also be used to synthesize multisubstituted furans.
