✦ Synopsis
Tricyclic compounds 4a and 4b possessing a bicyclo[4.3.0] moiety, were successfully synthesized by using the intramolecular Diels -Alder reaction. The siloxy-rather than acyloxy-substituents increased the ratio of the endo-cylcoadducts 10 and 12. The oxygen substitution of 9 influenced conformation of the transition state, which was stereochemically restricted by the butenolide moiety. In addition, 9b carrying a hydroxyl group also produced 10b in a similar ratio to 9a. Compound 11 was the only exo-adduct produced in all of the entries.

A mechanistic investigation into the recently reported intramolecular aryl Diels-Alder reaction was carried out using deuterium labeling. These studies led to the conclusion that the initial Diels-Alder adduct is isomerized to a highly conjugated tetra-ene intermediate which undergoes a stereospecif
