A convenient asymmetric synthesis of methyl (2S,3S,6R)-6-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-piperidine-3-carboxylate is described, starting from Baylis–Hillman adducts. The route involves a domino process: allylic acetate rearrangement, stereoselective Ireland–Claisen rearrangement and asymmetric Michael addition, which provides a δ-amino acid derivative with full stereochemical control. A subsequent chemoselective transformation of one of the side-chain groups allows an effective cyclization leading to biologically interesting polysubstituted piperidines in which the 2,6-aryl groups could be attached sequentially.

The synthesis of a hydroxylated vinyl-appended lactone, in five synthetic steps from tartaric acid, is reported. The C2-symmetrical bis-vinyl diol 12 was converted into the ketene acetal 14 via methylenation of the cyclic carbonate 13 or thermal elimination of benzeneselenenic acid from the selenoxide 17. In both cases, the in situ generated ketene acetal 14 underwent spontaneous Claisen rearrangement to give the nine-membered lactone (+)-15. Lactones of this type are potentially advanced precursors to simplified eleutherobin analogues or other medium-ring lactone natural products.

Synthetic studies on an ABC-ring model of Tubiferal A, a triterpenoid isolated from the fruit bodies of the Tubifera dimorphotheca myxomycete, are described. The stereogenic centers at the angular positions were constructed through the stereoselective addition of a C-ring allylborane followed by an Eschenmoser–Claisen rearrangement reaction prior to the formation of the AB-ring system by a double intramolecular alkylation reaction of a dichloro nitrile intermediate.
