Abstract
A straightforward, efficient, and highly diastereoselective method for the synthesis of 3,4-cyclopenta-1-tetralones has been realized via the copper-catalyzed coupling of 2-vinyl benzaldehydes with 3-alkenyl 2-bromocarbonyls. Subsequent reduction with l-selectride leads to the formation of benzannulated tricyclic alcohols, possessing four continuous stereogenic centers, in high yields with excellent diastereoselectivity.
