The Brønsted/Lewis acid properties of Hf-MOF-808 can be tuned by simply controlling the solvent employed in its synthesis, with direct catalytic implications on the activity and selectivity of organic reactions sensitive to the active site nature.

The osmium-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of vicinal diols onto proximal olefins to generate 2,5-cis-substituted tetrahydrofurans (THFs) has been exploited as the key step for the construction of several complex THF-containing natural products, namely, the annonaceous acetogenins cis-sylvaticin, sylvaticin, and the excitatory amino acid neo-dysiherbaine A. Recently modified conditions that employ a Lewis acid enable the cyclization to proceed under milder conditions, providing greater tolerance to acid-sensitive functional groups, as demonstrated in two of the syntheses. Flexibility for the construction of 2,5-trans-THFs was demonstrated in the synthesis of sylvaticin by utilization of an intramolecular hydride-shift sequence.
