Modular Synthesis of O-Containing Mono- and Dispiro-Scaffolds: From Simple Alkenes to Targeted Functionalization of Natural Products

Abstract We report an efficient and modular synthetic platform for the assembly of structurally diverse O-containing mono- and dispirocycles, leveraging the Zr-catalyzed cycloalumination of alkenes (Dzhemilev reaction) as the key complexity-generating step. This strategy involves...
