Herein, a simplified approach to the synthesis of medium-ring ethers through the electrophilic activation of secondary alcohols with (poly)cationic λ3-iodanes (N-HVIs) is reported. Excellent levels of selectivity are achieved for C–O bond migration over established α-elimination pathways, enabled by the unique reactivity of a novel 2-OMe-pyridine-ligated N-HVI. The resulting hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) acetals are readily derivatized with a range of nucleophiles, providing a versatile functional handle for subsequent manipulations. The utility of this methodology for late-stage natural product derivatization was also demonstrated, providing a new tool for diversity-oriented synthesis and complexity-to-diversity (CTD) efforts. Preliminary mechanistic investigations reveal a strong effect of alcohol conformation on the reactive pathway, thus providing a predictive power in the application of this approach to complex molecule synthesis.
2-(3-Lithiopropyl)- and 2-(3-lithiopropyl)-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane: New masked lithium bishomoenolates in the synthesis of bifunctionalized compounds

2-(3-Lithiopropyl)- and 2-(3-lithiopropyl)-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane (2) are prepaned by lithiation of the corresponding chlorinated precursors with lithium naphthalenide at -78°C. The reaction of these masked bishomoenolates with different electrophiles yie
