Triethylamine → 4-acetyloxy-3,5-dimethyl-6-(6-(methoxycarbonyl)benzofuran-2-yl)-2H-pyran-2-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

After adding a solution of 4-acetyloxy-3,5-dimethyl-6-(6-(trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy)benzofuran-2-yl)-2H-pyran-2-one (350 mg) in THF (5 ml) and Et3N (80 mg) to a mixed solution of palladium acetate (3.5 mg) and diphenylphospinopropane (6.5 mg) in DMSO (5 ml) and MeOH (5 ml), the mixture was stirred at room temperature for one hour under a carbon monoxide atmosphere, and then further stirred at 80° C. for 2 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane/AcOEt=1/1) to obtain 4-acetyloxy-3,5-dimethyl-6-(6-(methoxycarbonyl) benzofuran-2-yl)-2H-pyran-2-one.
