Abstract
The mechanism of the double intramolecular hetero‐Michael addition, a
key reaction in the planned synthesis of the natural product calyculin
C, has been studied by NMR. The cyclization follows Baldwin’s rules and
proceeds first through a six‐membered ring closure (6‐endo‐dig), followed by a five‐membered ring cyclization (5‐exo‐trig).
