Popis: SmI 2 -induced reaction of ( E )- and (Z)-β-alkoxyvinyl sulfones onto an aldehyde function afforded 2,6- syn -2,3- trans - and 2,6- syn -2,3- cis -tetrahydropyran-3-ols, respectively, via stereoselective cyclization. This reaction was applied to the synthesis of 2-methyl-tetrahydropyran, corresponding to the N-ring of gymnocin-A, and 2- exo -methylene-tetrahydropyran, a key intermediate for convergent synthesis of polycyclic ethers based on the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction.
