Abstract
An efficient domino one-pot strategy for the synthesis of isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones includes [Cu]-catalyzed intermolecular cyanation of o-bromobenzyl alcohols, in situ intramolecular nucleophilic attack and hydrolysis. This reaction can successfully be carried out under environmentally benign conditions, using water as sole green solvent.
