Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

A gold‐catalyzed post‐Ugi cascade transformation for the synthesis of 2‐pyridones is described. The process involves furan–alkyne cyclization followed by furan ring‐opening and cleavage of the isocyanide‐originated fragment. The initially formed cis double bond can isomerize into a more stable trans double bond upon prolonged exposure to a strong Brønsted acid. Thus, the overall strategy provides a viable access towards two types of 2‐pyridones.
