The Diels-Alder reaction of maldoxin with an isopropenylallene at 60-75 degrees C afforded an adduct closely related to chloropestolide A (24%) and a second adduct (0-11%) that underwent an ene reaction to generate the chloropupukeanolide D (11-22%) skeleton. The Diels-Alder reaction occurred with good selectively (>5:1) from a single face of maldoxin under much milder conditions than previously reported for the analogous dimethoxycyclohexadienone. Furthermore, the ene reaction took place under mild conditions, whereas the analogous Diels-Alder adduct from the dimethoxycyclohexadienone did not undergo an ene reaction. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
