A stereoselective synthetic route to embellished cis-hydrindanes from simple aromatic precursors is described. Oxidative dearomatization, ring expansion, and photochemical 1,3-acyl shift are the key features of our approach. Oxidative dearomatization of o-(hydroxymethyl)phenols followed by π4s + π2s cycloaddition furnishes bicyclo[2.2.2]octanes with contiguous keto epoxide groups, which upon ring expansion lead to bicyclo[3.2.2]nonanes endowed with a β,γ-enone chromophore. Unbridging of bicyclo[3.2.2]nonanes upon singlet excitation furnishes embellished cis-hydrindanes.

Two routes are reported for the synthesis of iminocyclobutenones having N-(het)aryl substitution: an addition/substitution sequence starting with cyclobutenediones and an aza-Wittig method. A new synthetic route to N-alkyl derivatives is also presented. This involves O-alkylation of 3-alkylamino-1,2-cyclobutenediones using Meerwein’s reagent and subsequent deprotonation under non-hydrolytic conditions. Lithium organyls were found to add to the remaining carbonyl group. The resulting tertiary alcohols undergo ring enlargement on heating in xylene to give 4-aminophenols, 4-amino-1-naphthols, or cyclopenta-annulated quinolines from 4-vinyl, 4-aryl, and 4-alkynyl derivatives, respectively.

An efficient synthetic route to citreochlorol analogs, halogenated polyketide secondary metabolites, is described. The key features are Krische's enantioselective carbonyl allylation, IBr-promoted cyclization, and regioselective epoxide opening. The importance of the route lies in the access of the versatile epoxy ether 14, which opens access to the citreochlorol monochloro derivatives 5 and 6.
