Abstract

New potentially antiviral furan-fused tetracyclic compounds were prepared using intramolecular cycloaddition of o-quinodimethane generated by thermolysis of benzocyclobutene derivatives. It was found that the reaction course was changed depending on the length of alkyl chain connecting quinodimethane and furan ring.
