Spiroketals via oxidative rearrangement of enol ethers

David L. Waller, Corey R. J. Stephenson and Peter Wipf

---

Oxidative rearrangement of cyclic enol ethers leads to -alkoxyesters. In the presence of a neighboring spiroether, this approach provides a stereoselective access to spiroketals. A modified proposal for the biosynthesis of acutumine is presented.
