Abstract
Four C-C bonds, four rings, and eight contiguous stereocenters in one go! Tetracyclic product 2, which results on warming simple acyclic precursor 1 with a mild Lewis acid, is formed through an efficient and highly stereoselective domino sequence of two intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions. Pharmacologically important norsteriods are just one potential application of this extremely effective approach to fused polycyclic systems.
