Abstract New highly functionalized scaffolds, namely 2-(2-furyl)hydroxymethyl-2-cycloalkenones, are reported. The access to these systems is one step using an aqueous Morita–Baylis–Hillman reaction combining hydroxymethylfurfural and glucosyloxymethylfurfural and cycloalkenones for which the reaction conditions (promoter, solvent, concentration, and stoichiometry) have been optimized.
