Synthesis of novel polyhydroxylated derivatives of decalin is described. The presented methodology consists in a one-pot copper-catalyzed 1,4-addition of vinylmagnesium bromide to sugar-derived cyclohexenone, followed by an aldol reaction with a derivative of but-3-enal. The obtained diene is then subjected to an assisted tandem catalytic sequence: ring-closing metathesis with the subsequent reuse of the Ru-catalyst in the <i>syn</i>-dihydroxylation. The stereochemical outcome of these reactions ...[more]
