Abstract

The key steps in the synthesis of clavulactone are formation of an enantiopure cyclopentane precursor by epoxide rearrangement and intramolecular carbonyl-ene reaction, construction of the 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran ring by intermolecular hetero-Diels-Alder reaction, closure of the eleven-membered ring, and finally generation of the lactone functionality by chemoselective allylic C(sp(3))-H oxidation.
