Abstract

trans-2,8-Dioxabicyclodecanes were prepared in high yield with the creation of up to three stereocenters in a single pot by the acid-mediated reaction of γ,δ-unsaturated alcohols with aldehydes (see scheme, Bn=benzyl). This versatile reaction enables the stereoselective introduction of substituents at the C3, C4, C7, and C9 positions of the bicyclic framework.
