Titanocene(III) chloride mediated stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted tetrahydrofurans and a spirolactone by tandem radical reactions

The titanocene(III) chloride (Cp2TiCl) mediated stereoselective synthesis of highly substituted tetrahydrofurans has been achieved by a reaction that proceeds through a tandem radical cyclization reaction between a Baylis-Hillman adduct and an activated bromo/iodo compound. The reaction of an epoxide with the Baylis-Hillman adduct furnished a spirolactone through a radical cyclization followed by an in situ lactonization. Cp2TiCl was prepared in situ from commercially available Cp2TiCl2 and zinc dust in tetrahydrofuran.
