A partial stereochemical assignment of quartromicins A3 and D3 is presented, along with diastereoselective syntheses of the endo- and exo-spirotetronates 1 and 2, corresponding to the galacto and agalacto fragments of the proposed quartromicin stereostructure. The key steps of these syntheses are highly enantio- and diastereoselective Lewis acid catalyzed Diels-Alder reactions of 1,1,3,4-tetrasubstituted diene 24.
