Tandem catalysis in the polycyclisation of dienes to produce multi-substituted tetrahydrofurans
A new catalytic protocol has been established by using two separate oxidation reactions, catalysed by osmium, in tandem. Control of the pH and oxidation state of the metal is crucial in controlling this new sequence, which begins with a tethered aminohydroxylation reaction (Os(VIII) is active) and i...
