%X The microbially derived cis-1,2-dihydrocatechol 2 has been converted, via reaction sequences including Diels&#8211;Alder cycloaddition and anionic oxy-Cope rearrangement steps, into enantiopure bicyclo[5.3.1]undecenes 21 and 34, which correspond to AB-ring substructures of ent-taxoids and taxoids, respectively.
