Abstract
The Ito–Saegusa method has been used to generate benzofuran-2, 3-quinodimethane 10 from the corresponding sily acetate 17b in solution at–4 C. The intermediate reacts efficiently with a range of reactive Diels–Alder dienophiles with moderate to good levels of regioselection; the structure of the major diastereoisomer has been determined by X-ray analysis.
