Abstract

SmI 2-H2O-Mediated 5-exo/6-exo Lactone Radical Cyclization Cascades. -The title reaction gives the products as single diastereoisomers. The obtained [5.4.0]-carbocycles with two new carbocyclic rings are important natural product targets. -(YALAVAC, I.; LYONS, S. E.; WEBB, M. R.; PROCTER*, D. J.; Chem. Commun.
