Abstract

Polar bromocyclizations of bishomoallylic alcohols (nucleophilic oxygen), which have methyl and/or phenyl substituents located at positions 1, 4, and/or 5, and cyclizations of the derived alkenoxyl radicals (electrophilic oxygen) followed by bromine atom trapping from BrCCl₃, proceed with complementary regioselectivities.

Key words

alkoxyl radical - bromide oxidation - tert-butyl hydroperoxide - Mitsunobu reaction - vanadium
