β¦ Synopsis
Cyclization
of alkenol by an electrophilic organoselenium reagent is the important procedure for the synthesis of cyclic ether. 1 However previous reagents for oxyselenation do not always give satisfactory results, e.9. low reactivity, poor selectivity, and addition of the halide ion.
Recently we reported synthetic utilities of superelectrophilic benzeneselenenyl triflate
(1) for selenolactonization of the unsaturated carboxylic acid. 2 Described herein is its application for cyclization of the olefinic alcohol.
Reaction of 5-and 6-hydroxyalkene 2a-2h with 1 equivalent of 1 (PhSeOTf)
proceeded in dichloromethane at -78 -0 'C to give exo-cyclized3 tetrahydrofuran or -pyran derivatives 3a-3h, respectively. Results are summarized in
