Oxidative rearrangement of 2-furylcarbamates with dimethyldioxirane: a high-yielding preparation of 5-hydroxypyrrol-2(5H)-ones

A mild, general and efficient method for the oxidative rearrangement of 2-furylcarbamates to N-Boc-5-hydroxypyrrol-2(5H)-ones is reported. The feasibility of removing the Boc group from the products was demonstrated by the synthesis of two hitherto unknown 5-aryl-5-hydroxypyrrol-2(5H)-ones.
