are described for the synthesis of the corresponding tetrahydropyridines and pyran derivatives, respectively. In particular, the use of pyridine-carboxaldehydes for aza-silyl-Prins reaction led to either a symmetrical triarylmethane or two new bicyclic compounds. 4-Fluorinated-2-substituted tetrahydropyranderivatives were also obtained in the oxa-Prins cyclization with good selectivity in favor of

While developing new variations of the Prins cyclisation reaction, the effect of the choice of Lewis acid on the outcome of the reaction and the product(s) has been investigated, yielding hitherto unseen dihydropyran products in the Prins cyclisation reaction of homoallylic alcohols, and two new modifications of the reaction: the triflate-trapped Prins adduct and the Mukaiyama-Aldol-silyl-Prins reaction. Two of these methods are employed in two complementary total syntheses of the important perfumery compound, (+/-)-Civet. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Anodic cyclization of unsaturated α-stannyl ethers. Termination by bromide derived from dibromomethane
Anodic oxidation of unsaturated α-stannyl ethers in Bu4NClO4âCH2Br2 results in effective cyclization and the introduction of bromide into one of the original olefinic carbons; a mechanism involving the coupling between the cyclized carbocation and Brâ generated by cathodic reduction of CH2Br2 is suggested.
