The conversion of a substituted dioxinone to a pyrone was used in an improved synthesis of the AB spiroketal subunit of the spongistatins. This transformation occurred via a hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of an acyl ketene with butyl vinyl ether. A double diastereoselective Mukaiyama aldol reaction is used to provide the hetero-Diels-Alder precursor.
Synthesis of the AB spiroketal subunit of spongistatin 1 (Altohyrtin A): The pyrone approach

, p. 7487 - 7490 (2007/10/03)
The synthesis of the AB spiroketal fragment of spongistatin 1 (altohyrtin A) has been accomplished utilizing the addition of a metalated pyrone to an aldehyde followed by acid catalyzed spirocyclization. A stereoselective copper (I) promoted conjugate add
