Abstract
Abstract 3-Methyl-2 H -furo[2,3- c ]pyran-2-ones 1 and 2 , a unique and remarkable seed germination stimulant, and its analogue were synthesized using direct and regioselective Ti-crossed aldol addition between dihydro-2 H -pyran-3(4 H )-ones and methyl pyruvate as the key step, followed by furanone formation.
