The synthesis of siloxacyclopentene-constrained trienes 7 and 10 and studies of their IMDA cycloadditions are described. The use of appropriately chosen thermal or Lewis acid conditions allows for cycloadducts 3-6 to be obtained with high levels of diastereoselectivity. These adducts possess trans-relationships between the hydroxyl group and the adjacent ring fusion proton, a stereochemical relationship not previously attainable in IMDA reactions. ...[more]
