Abstract

Abstract 1, 2-Dialkoxy-substituted olefins, easily available from dihydropyranylcarbene complexes, evolve under mild oxidative conditions to form new functionalized compounds through an oxidative rearrangement process. Depending on the substitution of the starting material, different rearranged final products including cyclopentanone, cyclopentenone, spiroketal and polycyclic derivatives are easily available.
