Abstract

Abstract The diastereoselective Mn III-promoted radical addition of β-oxoesters 1 onto N- cinnamoyloxazolidinones 2 afforded 2, 3-dihydrofurans 3. After catalytic hydrogenation of the C= C bond, followed by reductive removal of the chiral auxiliary, the resulting enantiopure tetrahydrofurans 5 were transformed in two steps into naturally occurring (–)- virgatusin and (+)-urinaligran and two other, nonnatural, tetrasubstituted THF lignans.(© ...
