Abstract: An approach to mniopetals A-F (1-6) based on a type 1 intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reaction has been investigated. The substrate 12 for the envisioned IMDA reaction is either unreactive or decomposes upon exposure to Lewis acids over a range of temperatures; heating a solution of 12 in toluene at 110 °C, however, produces itaconate 14 in 80% yield. The stereospecific formation of 14 from 12 can be rationalized by a thermal [1,5] hydrogen shift. Analogously, thermolysis of alkenyl maleates 15a-c at 110 °C in toluene or 1,2-dibromoethane gives good yields of itaconates 16a-c, respectively.
