Abstract :
A one-pot synthesis of the substituted furans 3 could be achieved in good yields by reacting but-2-ene-1,4-diones 1 with acetoacetates 2 in the presence of a catalytic amount of InCl3 (20 mol %) using i-PrOH as solvent at 80–90 °C for 4–8 h. InCl3 was observed to give the optimum results among the various Lewis acids examined.
