Strategies for the total asymmetric synthesis of heliannuols K and L: Scope and limitations

Kulinkovich reactions of oxa-esters bearing terminal double bonds afford cyclopropanols by intramolecular cyclization. These can undergo Saegusa oxidation to provide β-chlorooxacycloalkanones and can then be then dehydrohalogenated into oxacycloalkenones.
