Abstract
The tetrahydropyranic fraction from the cyclization of geranyl acetate with phenylselenenic acid has only two racemic diasteroisomers that w ere separated as their hydroxyderivatives 7 and 8. The establishment o f the stereochemistry for both pairs of diasteroisomers is reported as well as the transformation of 7 and 8 into a unique racemic dihydropy rane 4, a precursor of beta-pyrones. A mechanism for the regio-stereos elective cyclization is proposed.
