✦ Synopsis


The use ofa mono-pivalate mono-acrylate bis-ester of (+)-lS,5S,6S-spirol4.4]nonane-l,6diol in an asymmetric Dieis-Alder reaction with cyclopentadiene (2 equiv. BCI3, -85Β°C, CH2C12) provided the expected endo bicyclo adduct in >97% de. Iodolactonization of the bicyclo adduct provided the (+)-lactune (5) with a 1S,4S,6S,8R,9S configuration (97% ee). The de's obtained from using various types and amounts of Lewis acids, and both chiral and racemic bis-esters in the Dieis-Alder reaction with cyciopentadiene are also reported.
