Abstract

[reaction: see text] Simple 1,4-dien-3-ones and 1,3-dienes react in the presence of BF(3).OEt(2) via a domino Nazarov electrocyclization/intermolecular [4 + 3]-cycloaddition sequence to furnish keto-bridged cyclooctenes in good yield. Most cases showed high diastereofacial selectivity and/or endo/exo selectivity, and surprising levels of regioselectivity were observed when isoprene was used as the diene partner.
