Stereoselective Tandem Iridium-Catalyzed Alkene Isomerization-Cope Rearrangement of ω-diene Epoxides: Efficient Access to Acyclic 1,6-Dicarbonyl Compounds
Keyword(s):
The Cope rearrangement of 2,3-divinyloxiranes, a rare example of epoxide C-C bond cleavage, results in 4,5-dihydrooxepines which are amenable to hydrolysis, furnishing 1,6-dicarbonyl compounds containing two contiguous stereocenters at the 3- and 4- positions. We employ...
