Abstract
Bicyclol9.3.1]pentadecatriene derivative 4 which corresponds to a prec ursor of taxol in a biomimetic entry was constructed by means of TiCl4 -Zn promoted McMurry cyclization and Mitsunobu inversion. Treatment of 4 with mercuric triflate afforded an unexpected rearrangement-transan nular cyclization product 5. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
