Abstract

In response to the challenge of preparing medium ring ethers of the Laurencia class, a simple synthesis of functionalized, acyclic α, α′-chiral disecondary ethers has been developed. Stereocontrolled cyclization to 9-membered rings was effected in overall high yield by Pd (0) catalyzed allylic alkylation.
