Abstract

Abstract Functionalized acylfuranones have been prepared in a one-step procedure by thermal fragmentation of the corresponding dioxinones in the presence of hydroxy ketones in basic conditions. Multicomponent reactions also occur on addition of an aldehyde as a third reaction partner resulting in an expeditious access to cadiolide B and its analogues.
