Intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) cycloaddition of the ester-tethered 1,3,9,-decatrienes possessing a carbonyl substituent at C10 has been investigated under controlled microwave heating (MeCN, 180 °C) to afford a variety of 3,4,4a,7,8,8a-hexahydroisochromen-1-ones in 53-89% yields and in 64:36-79:21 ratios for the cis and trans isomers. Under the same microwave heating conditions, a tandem Wittig-IMDA cycloaddition, starting from the α-bromoacetates of 3,5-hexadien-1-ols and glyoxalate/phenylglyoxal hydrates in the presence of PPh3 and 2,6-lutidine, has been demonstrated, furnishing 3,4,4a,7,8,8a-hexahydroisochromen-1-one adducts in 73-91% yields in favor of the cis isomers. During this tandem process, three consecutive carbon-carbon bonds in the end products were efficiently formed with the aid of microwave irradiation within short reaction times.
