The ketoaldehyde, 5-oxo-9-decenal (4) undergoes chemoselective addition to the aldehyde with either allyl or propargyl bromide under Luche-Barbier conditions.Oxymercuration-cyclisation of the resulting hydroxyketones, followed by reductive or oxidative demercuration, provides functionalised spiroacetals, some of which are of insect origin.
