Abstract
Secondary sugar allyltin derivatives of the d-series: Sug-CH(SnBu 3)-CHCH 2 (obtained in an S N2′ reaction of the corresponding primary allylic mesylates with ‘Bu 3SnCu’) with the S-configuration at the stereogenic center bearing the -SnBu 3 group decompose at 140°C to dienoaldehydes: CH 2CH-CHCH-[(CHOR) 3]-CHO with the cis geometry across the internal double bond. Such aldehydes react with the stabilized Wittig reagents to afford trienes, cyclization of which provides highly oxygenated enantiomerically pure cis-bicyclo[4.3.0]nonenes. This methodology is complementary to that recently proposed by us leading to such bicyclic systems, but with the trans junction between the five- and six-membered rings.
