Popis: A novel cascade reaction consisting of a five-membered ring selective Prins cyclization and a subsequent Friedel–Crafts cyclization is reported. Treatment of homocinnamyl alcohols and aromatic aldehydes with BF3·OEt2 in CH2Cl2 afforded hydrocyclopentafurans. Also hydrocyclopentafurans underwent the same cascade reaction after its furan ring cleavage upon treatment with BF3·OEt2 at room temperature. Various combinations of hydropentafurans and aromatic aldehydes or indole aldehydes permitted divergent synthesis of diquinane-furans stuck in aromatic rings.
