Abstract
In this paper we describe regioselective one-pot preparations of inner-oute r-ring 1,3-bis[trimethylsilyloxy]dienes and their Diels-Alder reactions wit h electron-deficient dienophiles. The dienes were prepared in quantitative yield, and the Diels-Alder reactions proceeded smoothly, regioselectively a nd with good yields, allowing efficient construction of highly functionaliz ed polycyclic skeletons such as naphthofurans, benzofurans and various carb ocycles present in natural and non-natural products.
