Partial reduction of annulated heterocycles as a general route to medium rings containing oxygen and nitrogen.
The preparation of annulated furans and pyrroles is described as part of a general strategy for the synthesis of medium ring heterocycles. After Birch reduction, the corresponding dihydro compounds were oxidatively cleaved to produce medium ring ethers and amines in an efficient manner. This methodo...
