[reaction: see text] Development of new organosilane reagents bearing C-centered chirality where the stereocenter is fully substituted, and their use in the stereocontrolled synthesis of cis- and trans-dihydropyrans containing a trisubstituted olefin is described. The reagents participate in Lewis acid promoted [4+2]-annulations providing useful levels of selectivity with both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes. A stereoselective synthesis of the C1a-C10 fragment of kendomycin (1) is also described.

An enantioselective synthesis of (-)-kendomycin is described and is based on the application of the organosilane-based [4 + 2]-annulation strategy for the assembly of the C1a-C10 fragment. An underutilized samarium(II) iodide-assisted cyclization (intramolecular Barbier-type reaction) is employed to afford the protected macrocycle.
