A Selective Intramolecular 5-exo-dig or 6-endo-dig Cyclization en Route to 2-Furanone or 2-Pyrone Containing Tricyclic Scaffolds

• Ringfused bicyclic 2-pyridones exhibit interesting biological properties against pili assembly in uropathogenic E. coli1 as well as curli formation2. In the strive for new ring-fused central fragments highly selective synthetic routes to the 2-furanone or 2-pyrone containing tricyclic scaffolds 1 and 2 have been developed.
