The deconstructive reorganization strategy for the synthesis of benzene-containing products from the kojic acid- and maltol-derived alkynes has been recently reported. In this strategy, kojic acid and maltol are analogous to the “Transformers”, which can transform into benzofurans and benzaldehydes via annulation reactions. Under the synthetic standpoint, this deconstructive reorganization strategy features high atom economy, innate scalability and functional group tolerance. In the near future, we believe that this unique method will be widely investigated and other novel transformations of kojic acid and maltol will be discovered.
