Spirocyclisation modes in the formation of tricyclospirodienones

Abstract

Phenol-exo spirocyclisations of phenolic iodides 79 have been shown to proceed smoothly in the 5- and 6-exo-tet senses; in contrast the phenolic epoxides 1315 fail to cyclise in these formally allowed modes and only the 7-endo type, e.g.14a16 is viable: cyclisation via phenylthiiranium ions follows a similar pattern.
