✦ Synopsis


This paper describes a general procedure for the efficient preparation of highly substituted tetrahydrofurans. The condensation of ~-diazo-13-ketoester-derived enolates with orthoesters yields diazoacetals la-ld. These compounds undergo formal C-O insertion reactions in the presence of Rh2(OAc)4 to afford tetrahydrofurylacetals 2a-2c. Similar insertion reactions of diazoacetals 5a-5d yield bicyclic acetals 6a-6d, which possess cores similar to those of the zaragozic acids.

The aldol reactions of ct-diazo-13-ketoesters with a variety of aldehydes produced adducts which underwent Rh(II)-catalyzed O-H insertion reaction to yield highly substituted tetrahydrofurans. Alkylation and decarboxylation of these tetrahydrofurans formed a wide
