- method to construct the imide functionality is to react the corresponding primary amines with cyclic anhydrides to form amic acids, which are then cyclized using acetic anhydride and sodium acetate in a separate step [26]. Hexamethyldisilazane–zinc chloride has also become one of the most widely used

- ; spiroketals; stereocontrol; zinc chloride; Introduction The spiroketal moiety is common in natural products of marine, plant, insect, and bacterial origins [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. The rigidity of the spiroketal provides defined orientation of pendant functional groups, and there is a strong
- internal alkyne 6, which was submitted to gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization [33] to afford spiroketals 7a and 7b (the silyl ether is concomitantly hydrolyzed) as a 1:1 mixture of isomers. Exposure of this mixture to zinc chloride promoted isomerization to provide 7a in >20:1 dr. TEMPO oxidation then
- -spiroketals 21a and 21b was obtained in 71% overall yield from 20. The mixture of diols 21a and 21b converged to 21a (epimer 21b no longer observable by 1H NMR) upon treatment with zinc chloride. TEMPO oxidation of diol 21a led to the formation of cephalosporolide E (2, admixed with a minor diastereomer
