An efficient Au-catalyzed transformation for the synthesis of benzofurans from phenols and alkynes using molecular oxygen has been developed. The reaction proceeds smoothly with commercially available, eco-friendly oxidant and affords the products in moderate to good yields. This reaction is a facile approach for the formation of C - C and C-O bonds.

The direct arylation of benzo[b]furan, benzo[b]thiophene, and indole has been studied by using aromatic bromides as the aryl source. The protocol employing common reagents and a Pd catalyst has led to the regioselective arylation of these heterocycles at the 2-position. A range of functional groups were tolerated, providing quick access to a variety of arylated benzo-fused heterocycles that would be accessible more elaborately using classical synthetic strategies. This is the first systematic study of the direct arylation of benzo[b]-furan.
