Comprehensive Summary

The rhodium-catalyzed C—H bond activation and cyclization of 3-oxopent-4-enenitriles with alkynes proceed efficiently. Various 2H-pyrans with multiple substituents are achieved in good yields through regioselective formation of C—O and C—C bonds. Transformations involving hydroxy-alkynoates resulted in products with a furo[3,4-b]pyran skeleton via further intramolecular ester exchange processes. Different from the traditional “1-oxatrienes pathway”, this method for the synthesis of useful 2H-pyrans possesses certain highlights in terms of readily available substrates, stable and easily derivatized products, gentle and convenient operation process, and step and atom economy.
