Abstract

A new route to the regioisomeric 2-alkylnaphtho[2,1-b]- and 2-alkylnaphtho[1,2-b]-furans via acid-catalyzed cyclization of the corresponding 2-naphthyloxyalkanals under mild conditions over Amberlyst 15 resin has been described. The 2-naphthyloxyalkanals were obtained by palladium-catalyzed reduction of 2-naphthyloxyalkanoyl chlorides.
