ChemInform Abstract: Enantioselective Intramolecular Diels-Alder Reactions of Trienes Synthesized from Monosaccharides.
Abstract
Starting with the tribenzylated xylose (I), the nonatrienes (II) and (III) are synthesized.
ChemInform Abstract
Starting with the tribenzylated xylose (I), the nonatrienes (II) and (III) are synthesized. The glucose derivative (IV) is converted to the trienes (V) and (VI). The thermally induced intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition of these trienes produces selectively the bicyclic olefins (VII) - (X).
