Copper-catalyzed oxonium ylide formation-[2,3] shift of (5S,7R)-5-allyloxy-1-diazo-8-(p-methoxybenzyloxy)-7-methyl-2-octanone (3) proceeded in tetrahydrofuran-dichloromethane (4 : 1) under reflux with an excellent stereoselectivity (97 : 3) to give (2R,6S)-2-allyl-6-[(2R)-3-(p- methoxybenzyloxy)-2-methylpropyl]-3-dihydropyranone (2) as a major isomer in 82% yield. The resultant pyranone (2) was converted to the key intermediate (1) of the Mulzer's laulimalide synthesis and its derivatives (14, 15). © 2005 Pharmaceutical Society of Japan.
