A new domino reaction for Nazarov reagents: An efficient approach was developed for the construction of highly functionalized conjugated 2,3-dihydrofuran skeletons. Nazarov reagents were used for the first time in a phosphine-catalyzed domino reaction and successfully used to construct five-membered

[reactions: see text] Regioselective synthesis of 2,4,5- or 3,4,5-trisubstituted 2,3-dihydrofurans has been realized by using donor-acceptor cyclopropanes or by a Corey ylide reaction with alpha-sulfenyl-, alpha-sulfinyl-, or alpha-sulfonylenones. The method allowed a straightforward synthesis of the natural product calyxolane B.
