One-pot synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted dihydrobenzofurans and benzofurans via rhodium-catalyzed intramolecular C–H insertion reaction†
Abstract
Intramolecular sp3 C–H insertion reaction of α-imino rhodium carbene generated from N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles has been described. A number of 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran and benzofuran derivatives have been obtained in good to excellent yields.
