General synthetic approach to functionalized dihydrooxepines.

A three-step sequence to access functionalized 4,5-dihydrooxepines from cyclohexenones has been developed. This approach features a regioselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidation and subsequent functionalization via the corresponding enol phosphate intermediate.
