The intramolecular hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of benzylidene 2-oxocarboxylic acid esters 7 is described, and the diastereoselectivity of the reaction determined. Condensation of the aldehyde 1 with 2-oxocarboxylic acids 5a, b followed by esterification gives 7a, b which cyclize in refluxing xylene to 8a, b and 9a, b in better than 95% yield.
