Iridium(III)-catalyzed tandem Claisen rearrangement–intramolecular hydroaryloxylation of aryl allyl ethers to form dihydrobenzofurans

Iridium(III)-catalyzed tandem Claisen rearrangement and intramolecular hydroaryloxylation of ally aryl ethers is described, which provides a mild method to prepare dihydrobenzofurans.
