Abstract
Aerobic oxidative cyclization of 2,2′-dihydroxystilbenes via oxygen cation radical to give cis-4b,9b-dihydrobenzofuro[3,2-b]benzofurans was carried out in an enantioselective manner (up to 89% ee) by using (nitrosyl)Ru(salen) 10 as the catalyst under photo-irradiated conditions.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
