Copper(I)-Catalyzed Chemoselective Reduction of Benzofuran-2-yl Ketones to Alcohols with B2pin2 via a Domino-Borylation-Protodeboronation Strategy

A novel copper(I)-catalyzed chemoselective reduction of the carbonyls of benzofuran-2-yl ketones over furan rings with B2pin2 has been developed. This reaction proceeded under mild conditions. High valuable secondary alcohol derivatives of benzofurans were obtained in good to excellent yields with a broad substrate scope. The mechanistic studies suggested that a domino-borylation-protodeboronation pathway was involved in this reaction.

Condensation Product of Salicylaldehyde and 2-Bromo-2'-hydroxyacetophenone: Revision of Structure

Reaction between salicylaldehyde and 2-bromo-2'-hydroxyacetophenone (1) gives 2-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)coumaran-3-one (5) rather than 2-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)benzofuran (2) as reported in a patented literature.
