Abstrakt: An organocatalytic Cloke-Wilson rearrangement of cyclopropyl ketones to 2,3-dihydrofurans is exploited utilizing the homoconjugate addition process. With 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane as the catalyst, the rearrangement in DMSO at 120 °C proceeded in generally high yields, exclusive regioselectivity, and a broad substrate scope. An examination of the mechanism including stereochemical analysis and intermediate isolation supports an S N 1-type ring opening of the mechanism.
