Abstract
3-Oxooxepan-2-ylphosphonates 3, prepared by rhodium carbenoid cyclisat ion of the diazophosphonates 1, are readily elaborated into the keto a lcohols 6, by Wadsworth-Emmons reaction, hydrogenation and epimerisati on. Cyclisation of 6 using trimethylsilyl triflate-triethylsilane resu lts in formation of 7-6- and 7-7-bicyclic ethers 10, with trans select ivity.
