Popis: | The reaction of (E)- or (Z)-cinnamyl alcohol and ethyl vinyl ether with a catalyst consisting of Pd(OAc) 2 , Cu(OAc) 2 , and catechol (1:1:2) under O 2 gives a good yield of(Z)- or (E)-4-benzylidene-2-ethoxytetrahydrofuran, respectively. Similarly, 2-butoxy-4-exomethylenetetrahydrofuran was obtained from allyl alcohol and butyl vinyl ether. In the case of allyl alcohol, however, the catalysis does not proceed well with forming palladium black, if a relatively large amount of Pd(OAc) 2 , such as 0.25 mmol to 0.05 mmol, is used even in a lower palladium/substrate ratio, e.g. 1 mol% concentration of the catalyst. |
