Abstract

In the course of a total synthesis of the potent cytotoxic agents tedanolide 1a and 13-deoxy- tedanolide 1b, 2 a good method was needed to carry out two specific transformations, namely, a reversible protection of the alkene of the homoallylic alcohol system 2 and the conversion of the homoallylic alcohol or ether into the methyl ketone 3.
