Abstract

We describe a novel procedure for the straightforward synthesis of seven-membered carbocycles via free-radical chemistry, based on titanocene (III)-catalyzed 7-endo-dig and 7- endo-trig cyclizations. This procedure has proved to be useful for the chemical preparation of terpenoids with different skeletons containing cycloheptane rings, including the first total syntheses of dauca-4 (11), 8-diene (2), barekoxide (3), authentic laukarlaol (81), and a ...
