Stereoselective oxidative cyclisations of 1,5,9-trienes : synthetic studies towards eurylene

A novel synthetic route towards the stereoselective formation of trans-THF rings by permanganate promoted oxidative cyclisation of 1,5-diene precursors was developed. This methodology was applied to 1,5-dienoates and 1,5,9-trienoates to afford trans-THF regions of the natural products, (+)-linalool...
