Abstract
Reaction of (Z)-1,4-dihydroxybut-2-ene 2a with the diaryldialkoxysulfane 3 has been reported 9 to give 2,5-dihydrofuran in 84% yield, but the reagent is expensive. Diethoxytriphenylphosphorane 4 efficiently cyclises the same diol 10 but this reagent must be prepared from explosive diethyl peroxide. The environmentally toxic butyltrichlorotin reacts with the diol 2a to give 2,5-dihydrofuran (88%) together with some crotonaldehyde. 11 Barry and Evans have described 12,13 ...
