Efforts toward a synthesis of (±)-fusidilactone C is described here featuring a novel cyclic acetal tethered intramolecular Diels-Alder strategy. This unique and facile IMDA turned out to be highly endo-selective [endo-I and endo-II], as assessed from our mechanistic analyses. When using protic solvents or Lewis acids, the endo-I selectivity was greatly enhanced. Thus, it proved to be a real challenge to circumvent this excellent stereochemical outcome, which is undesired for the total synthesis, as an exo-II selectivity is desired. Progress was made to use the endo-II cycloadduct and to access the desired trans-2-oxadecalin motif in (±)-fusidilactone C. The Japan Institute of Heterocyclic Chemistry.

Equation presented. An approach toward the 2-oxadecalin spiroketal core of fusidilactone C via a rare ketal-tethered intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition is described here. This intramolecular Diels-Alder cycloaddition is highly endo-selective and ove
