β¦ Synopsis
Direct oxidation of (E)-4-(6-substituted-l-cy. clohexenyl)-3-bulen-2-ones (4a,,-7a) by selenium dioxide afforded 2-acetyltetrahydrobenzofurans (4b~Tb) in moderate to good yields. An inverse, stepwise [2+4] cycloaddilion mechanism of the intermediate formation was proposed from conformational and electronic requirements of conjugated dienones and solvent effects of SeO2 oxidation.
