Abstract
The stereoselective synthesis of tetrahydrofurans has been achieved from bromoalkynes and bromoalkenes by intramolecular radical cyclisation using a hypophosphite salt. This radical cyclisation strategy has successfully been applied to the total synthesis of a naturally occurring bioactive furanolignan, dihydrosesamin.
