Abstract

The preparation of chiral spirocyclic ethers via allylic etherification/olefin metathesis of homoallylic alcohols is investigated. This reaction sequence transforms the enantiopure substrate alcohols, synthesized by a one-pot asymmetric rhodium-catalyzed conjugate addition/metal-mediated allylation procedure, into the desired spiro ethers with full conversions and in excellent isolated yields. The synthetic sequence provides an efficient means for a rapid construction of functionalized spiro ethers in a stereoselective manner.
