Abstract
Olefination of ester 26 which was obtained
from acid 20 and alkenol 25 using
a reduced titanium ethylidene reagent led to cyclic enol ether 28 which could be cyclized by iodospiroacetalization
to the spiroacetal core of the antifungal compound spirofungin A
(5 ).
Key words
acetal - aldol reaction - natural product - ring-closing metathesis - spirofungin

34 In contrast to the negative result
with ester 26 , the Tebbe olefination did
work with substrate 31 featuring an acetal protecting
group for the 1,2-diol subunit. With ester 31 ,
the Tebbe olefination only led to the acyclic enol ether 32 (Scheme
[6 ]
),
whereas the Tebbe-Petasis reagent produced a mixture of
the open and closed enol ethers 32 and 33 (open/closed = 1:2);
