A flexible approach toward trans-fused polycyclic tetrahydropyrans. A synthesis of prymnesin and yessotoxin units

Org Lett. 2004 Nov 11;6(23):4311-3. doi: 10.1021/ol048165q.

Abstract

Ru-catalyzed cycloisomerization and oxidative cyclization of bis-homopropargylic alcohols provide a rapid iterative approach to structural units of the ladder toxins.
