Bismuth(III) triflate is found to be an effective Lewis acid in catalyzing a three-component reaction of homoallylic alcohol, carbonyl compound, and nitrile at ambient temperature via the Prins–Ritter sequence to furnish 4-amidotetrahydropyrans in high yields, all with cis selectivity. Spirocyclic 4-amidotetrahydropyrans are obtained in case of cyclic ketones.Key words: Prins cyclization, bismuth(III) triflate, homoallyl alcohol, 4-amidotetrahydropyrans.

Laccase-based biocatalytic reactions have been tested with and without mediators and optimized in the oxidation of allylbenzene derivatives, such as methyl eugenol taken as a model substrate. The reaction primarily consisted in the hydroxylation of the propenyl side chain, either upon isomerization of the double bond or not. Two pathways were then observed; oxidation of both allylic alcohol intermediates could either lead to the corresponding α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, or the corresponding benzaldehyde derivative by oxidative cleavage. Such a process constitutes a green equivalent of ozonolysis or other dangerous or waste-generating oxidation reactions. The conversion rate was sensitive to the substitution patterns of the benzenic ring and subsequent electronic effects.
