Abstract
This work demonstrates a new method for the synthesis of cyclopenta[a]naphthalenol and 2-phenylnaphthalen-1-ol analogs via selective cyclization. ortho-Alkynylarylkenones were employed as the common substrates that could be prepared by Sonogashira coupling between 2-haloarylacetophenone and pent-4-yn-1-ol derivatives. These precursors were used without purification to construct 2-phenylnaphthalen-1-ol intermediates by treating with (+)-CSA under heating conditions. Selective cyclization occurred when the reaction was conducted in methyl trimethylacetate solvent which predominantly produced the 2-phenylnaphthalen-1-ol product through 6-endo-dig cyclization without elimination or the formation of cyclopenta[a]naphthalenol via shutting down the 5-exo-dig mode of cyclization. Switching the acid from a Brønsted acid to Bi(OTf)3 led to smooth reactions, providing the cyclopenta[a]naphthalenol products in moderate to good yields. Moreover, we also demonstrated the utilization of 2-phenylnaphthalen-1-ol to prepare naphthoquinone, which is an important core structure of bioactive and natural product compounds.

Abstract
A cascade oxazole-benzannulation for the synthesis of naphtho[2,3-d]oxazoles has been developed employing ortho-alkynylamidoarylketones as substrates. This procedure provides the advantage of preparing a wide variety of substituents on naphtho[2,3-d]oxazole structures. In addition, o-alkynylamidoarylketones could be prepared from easily accessible and a wide variety of commercially available starting materials. Therefore, this method is a judicious choice of strategy to synthesize naphtho[2,3-d]oxazoles with a great variety of substituents. In this work, 27 examples were demonstrated to provide the desired products in moderate to good yields.
