Towards the development of asymmetric 6Pi electrocyclisations

The biosynthesis of the superfamily of pyrones such as (+)-tridachione, (-)-crispatone or tridachiahydropyrone have drawn much attention. However, the isolated natural products are enantiomerically pure whereas the syntheses of these natural products were completed in racemic form. This raises the q...
