Abstract
A new, stereoselective method for the synthesis of substituted tetrahydrofurans from gamma-hydroxy alkenes that forms both a C-C and a C-O bond with diastereoselectivities of up to >20:1 is described. Initial mechanistic studies that suggest the reactions proceed via the intramolecular insertion of an olefin into a Pd(Ar)(OR) intermediate are discussed.Entities:
