A new sulfinyl orthoester has been designed and used effectively in one-flask syntheses of dienoate esters from allylic alcohols; this new method as well as a highly stereocontrolled [2 + 4]-cycloaddition are applied to synthesis of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.
ASYMMETRIC DIELS-ALDER CYCLOADDITIONS USING CHIRAL ALKYL VINYL ETHERS AND A DIENYL SULFONE

Chiral alkyl vinyl ethers 2b-2j underwent mild, inverse electron demand, Diels-Alder cycloadditions with 3-arenesulfonyl-2-pyrone 1 to form bridged bicyclic lactone adducts 3b-3j in excellent yields and with diastereoselectivities of up to 90percent.
