✦ Synopsis


A direct stereocontrolled route for the construction of highly substituted cyclopentanones 10a-d has been developed starting from aeyclic ketones 5a,b. The key step involves copper(I)-eatalysed stezeoselective photocycloaddition of the dienes 6a-d followed by stereospecific rearrangement of the cyclobutane derivatives 7a,b, 8 and 9. Employing this methodology a formal synthesis of the sesquiterpene Ag~12)-capnellene 2 has been achieved.
