Note: The original paper was withdrawn on February 29, 2008. Page 730. The authors failed to cite clear precedents for the palladium-catalyzed synthesis of functionalized furans from (Z)2-en-4-yn-1-ols. We apologize for this inadvertent failure to recognize these highly relevant prior contributions. We thank Prof. Bartolo Gabriele for bringing these papers to our attention. The following references should therefore be added: (3) (n) Gabriele, B.; Salerno, G.; Lauria, E. J. Org. Chem. 1999, 64, 7687. (o) Gabriele, B.; Salerno, G.; De Pascali, F.; Costa, M.; Chiusoli, G.
