Abstract
An efficient and reliable multi-step synthesis of 251 natural product-like [5.5]-spiroketals on solid supports has been developed. As central key step, a double intramolecular hetero-Michael (DIHMA) reaction to alkynones was applied. The sequence allows for introduction of numerous substituents on the scaffold and for variation of stereochemistry. [5.5]-Spiroketals bearing an additional ketone were obtained in high overall yields. Further diversification was achieved by reduction of the ketone and reductive amination using polymer-supported borohydride, Grignard reaction and conversion to oxime derivatives in the solution phase.
