A Convenient Diels-Alder Approach toward Potential Polyketide-like Antibiotics Using α-Activated α,β-Unsaturated 4,4-Dimethyl-1-tetralones as Dienophiles

Making use of a Diels–Alder approach based on various α,β-unsaturated 2-carbomethoxy-4,4-dimethyl-1-tetralones as novel dienophiles, the corresponding polycyclic adducts could be efficiently synthesized in good to high yields (74~99%) in the presence of Lewis acid (e.g., SnCl<sub>4</sub>...
