A convergent and stereodivergent pathway to highly substituted 1-aza-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes is described. It begins with a coupling reaction involving allylic alcohol, aldehyde, and LiHMDS to produce stereodefined primary homoallylic amines. Subsequent N-oxidation and condensation with formaldehyde or glyoxylate defines a convenient entry to densely functionalized homoallylic nitrones whose intramolecular annulation can be controlled to deliver one of two distinct heterocyclic skeletons, ea ...[more]
