Enantioselective synthesis of bicyclo[2.2.2]octenones using a copper-mediated oxidative dearomatization/[4 + 2] dimerization cascade

An enantioselective approach to bicyclo[2.2.2]octenone structures utilizing a copper-mediated asymmetric oxidative dearomatization/[4 + 2] dimerization cascade is described. The total synthesis and absolute stereochemistry reassignment of (+)-aquaticol has been achieved using the methodology. Copyright

Regio- and stereoselectivities in Diels-Alder cyclodimerizations of orthoquinonoid cyclohexa-2,4-dienones

The [4+2] cyclodimerization of cyclohexa-2,4-dienone derivatives of the orthoquinone monoketal and orthoquinol types has been the topic of numerous investigations over the last 50 years in the aim of rationalizing the extraordinary level of regio-, site-,
