Abstract
Three Lewis acid catalysed reactions used in a synthesis of the tricyc lic core of the marine anti-inflammatory pseudopterosins are reported; the reductive cleavage of an oxirane with inversion, the cyclisation of an alpha-hydroxy ketenedithioacetal to an arene, and a stereoselect ive annulation using an allylic sulfone as the electrophile.
