β¦ Synopsis
A 5, 7-membered fused-ring compound with a fianctionalized angular substituent, 8-methoxy-8act-methoxymethyl-7-phenylthio-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydro-3acq 613-epoxyazulene, was synthesized via a tandem Pummerer rearrangement and intramolecular [4+3] cycloaddition.

Compound 8 which could be used as a versatile precursor for the synthesis of 5,7membered fused ring containing natural products was synthesized via tandem Pummerer rearrangement and intramolecular [4+3] cycloaddition in moderate yield and with high diastereoselectivity.
## Abstract magnified image The title compound 2βbutylβ5βchloroβ3__H__βimidazoleβ4βcarbaldehyde was transformed into tricyclic heterocycles by substituting the chlorine atom by an unsaturated thiolate or alkoxide and then converting aldehyde function into 1,3βdipole. ChloramineβT was used as an ef
