description

Abstract Selectivity of the domino [5+2]/[4+2] cycloaddition reactions of a β-silyloxy-γ-pyrone bearing a tethered alkene with two substituted 1,3-butadienes have been theoretically studied at the B3LYP/6-31G∗//AM1 and B3LYP/6-31G∗ computational levels. Analysis of these results allow explaining the regio, stereo and chemoselectivity observed experimentally at these domino reactions. Selectivity outcome is reproduced by these calculations.
