Hydrogen bonding control in the oxidative cyclisation of 1,5-dienes
The regioselective dihydroxylation of a series of functionalised polyenes is described. Under acidic conditions, the osmate ester derivatives obtained from oxidation with OsO4/TMEDA undergo an intramolecular cyclisation reaction forming functionalised tetrahydrofurans with high stereoselectivity and...
