Abstract
[GRAPHICS] Treatment of the allenyl sulfoxides and sulfones possessing a proper delta -hydroxy appendage at the C-1 position with potassium tert-butoxide effecte d endo mode ring closure at the sp-hybridized carbon center of the allenyl moiety to provide the five- to eight-membered oxacycles in high yields.
