General description

2-Ethylfuran undergoes tetraphenylporphin-photosensitized oxygenation in non-polar aprotic solvents via (4+2)-cycloaddition of singlet oxygen to yield the corresponding monomeric unsaturated secondary ozonide.

Application

2-Ethylfuran was used to investigate the gas phase products formed from the Cl atoms initiated reactions of 2-ethylfuran by in situ long-path FTIR absorption spectroscopy. It was also used in the synthesis of 4-oxo-(E)-2-hexenal via ring opening reaction using aqueous N-bromosuccinimide.
