Abstract

We have achieved a short, efficient stereoselective synthesis of 7-membered oxepane derivatives with potential against asthma. Highlights of our synthetic strategy are regioselective oxidation of a hydroxyl group and efficient ring closure of an open chain aldehyde to a 2-benzenesulfonyl oxepane derivative with PhSO2H. Surprisingly the cis-isomer showed better activity than the traps-isomer. (C) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
