Abstract
The stereoselective synthesis of 5–5, 6–5, and 7–5 fused O-heterocyclic compounds is reported. The key reaction is a formal intramolecular (4+ 1)-cycloaddition involving a dialkoxycarbene and an electron-deficient diene where the stereoselectivity is dependent on the length of the tether. An analysis of the stereochemical outcome of this reaction sheds light on its complex mechanistic picture. High-level calculations were used to support the ...
