The Reactions of Furfuryl Alcohols with Maleic Anhydride

, p. 1383 - 1386 (2007/10/02)
The reactions of furfuryl alcohols (1a) and (1b) with maleic anhydride were investigated and, for the first time, conditions defined for the production of intramolecular Diels-Alder adducts.Under basic conditions the adducts (3a,b) yield phthalides in high yield.Furfuryl alcohols (1c) and (8a) afford normal intermolecular Diels-Alder adducts with maleic anhydride.

The reaction of furfuryl alcohols with maleic anhydride leads to tricyclic lactonecarboxylic acids through the sequence of esterification and intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction.Anodic oxidative decarboxylation of the hydrogenated products in MeOH affords 1,2,3-trisubstituted cyclopentane derivatives, viz. 1-hydroxymethyl-3-methoxy-2-oxabicycloheptane-7-syn-carboxylic lactones, potential intermediates for synthesis of iridoids.
