Abstract
Boron 4-methoxy-2-furanolates generated in situ from 5-unsubstituted and 5-monosubstituted 4-O-methyl tetronates undergo highly regioselective 3-hydroxyalkylations with aldehydes to give 5-unsubstituted and 5-monosubstituted 3-acyl-4-O-methyl tetronates, respectively, in good overall yields after oxidation of the intermediate alcohols with 2-iodoxybenzoic acid.
