General description
2-Methoxyfuran forms cycloadducts with maleic anhydride and N-methylmaleimide. It undergoes Friedel-Crafts reaction with nitroalkenes catalyzed by diphenylamine-tethered bis(oxazoline)-Zn(OTf)2 complexes.
Application
2-Methoxyfuran was used to study the hydrolysis of furan derivative by acid catalysis.

The early stages of the retro-Diels-Alder reaction are clearly apparent in the structures of the cycloadducts formed between furan or 5-trimethylsilylcyclopentadiene with maleic anhydride and N-methylmaleimide. The degree of lengthening of the C-C bonds that break in this reaction is

The first catalytic asymmetric Friedel-Crafts reaction of 2-methoxyfuran with nitroalkenes was developed under the catalysis of diphenylamine-tethered bis(oxazoline)-Zn(OTf)2 complexes. The reaction conditions and ligands were optimized, and the scope of the reaction was tested by varying the nitroalkenes. For most
