Abstract

The stereoselective formation of cyanohydrin 4 was achieved by radical cyclization-oxygen trapping reaction of 5 into an intramolecular acrylic nitrile moiety. The cyanohydrin was used for ring closure reaction with a tosylate, providing the bicyclic systems 1 and 2 with a trans ring fusion.
