Abstract

Abstract Ceric (IV) ammonium nitrate-mediated oxidative cycloaddition of 1, 3-dicarbonyls to vinyl sulfides afforded substituted dihydrofurans with sulfide groups in moderate yields. This new synthetic method has been applied to the synthesis of benzo [b] naphtho [2, 3-d] furan- 6, 11-dione and furanoflavone natural products such as millettocalyxins C and pongol methyl ether.
