A dianionic Ireland-Claisen rearrangement of chiral, nonracemic α-methyl-β-hydroxy allylic esters has been developed that proceeds with high diastereoselectivity and provides products containing three contiguous stereogenic carbons, including a quaternary center. The potential utility of the rearrangement for complex molecule synthesis is also demonstrated.

The synthesis of the briarane-brianthein A core has been accomplished utilizing an extension of the dianionic Ireland-Claisen rearrangement to establish the C1 quaternary carbon and the adjacent C10 ring juncture stereocenters. Two sequential ring-closing metathesis reactions were exploited to construct the 6-10 trans fused ring system.
