Abstract
An efficient dual synthetic manifold for 2-aminofurans and 2-unsubstituted furans has been developed. The carbenoid-mediated [3 + 2] cycloaddition of copper carbenoids with enamines provides 2-amino-2,3-dihydrofurans which serve as common intermediates for both 2-aminofurans and 2-unsubstituted furans.
