The rapid synthesis of bicyclo[m.n.1]alkanone cores possessing quaternary carbon centers adjacent to a bridged ketone represents a significant synthetic challenge. This type of architectural feature is embedded in various complex biologically active compounds such as hyperforin and garsubellin A. Herein, we report a highly diastereoselective one-pot Diels-Alder reaction/Au(I)-catalyzed carbocyclization to generate bicyclo[3.3.1]alkanones in yields ranging from 48-93%. ...[more]
