Abstract

Diastereoselective construction of 2,6-disubstituted tetrahydropyrans with an exocyclic double bond was achieved via the In(OTf)3-catalyzed intramolecular 2,5-oxonium-ene cyclization. Its application was further demonstrated by the synthesis of a common intermediate for both zampanolide and dactylolide, fragment I, with a total yield of 42% in three steps starting from (2E)-3-bromobut-2-enal.
