β-Acyloxy-α-phenylthio-substituted α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds 3a-i and 4c, f, having different electron withdrawing carbon substituents at the carbonyl group, afford with ethyl vinyl ether as heterodienophile the dihydropyrans 5a-i and 6c, f, respectively. The endo/exo-diastereoselectivity of these reactions, providing versatile intermediates for carbohydrate and related natural product syntheses, is discussed.
