Abstract

The decalin skeleton is an integral structural feature of a wide variety of natural products of biological importance particularly in the agrochemical and medicinal areas1 A testament to the importance of this structural type in nature, is perhaps the variety and abundance of annulatiodcyclization strategies developed toward its synthesis. In addition to the well- established approaches such as the Robinson annulation (MichaeVAldol), recent reports ...
