Several compounds related to helminthosporic acid (3) were synthesized via the [3+4] cycloaddition. The reaction of 3-hydroxymethyl-2-methylfuran (12) with 1,1,3,3-tetrabromo-4-methylpentan-2-one (13) resulted in 7-hydroxymethyl-4alpha-isopropyl-1alpha-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (8) (37%) and 7-hydroxymethyl-2alpha-isopropyl-1alpha-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (14) (12%), which were converted into 7-formyl-4alpha-isopropyl-1alpha-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (16) (32% from 8) and 7-formyl-2alpha-isopropyl-1alpha-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one (18) (40% from 14), respectively. Reduction of (8) resulted in 7-hydroxymethyl-4alpha-isopropyl-1alpha-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6 -en-3alpha-ol (11) (63% from 8) and 7-hydroxymethyl-4alpha-isopropyl-1alpha-methyl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3 beta-ol (15) (30% from 8). The 4alpha-isopropyl-1alpha-methyl-3-oxo-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-7-oic acid (19) was obtained by oxidation of (16) (78%). The results of biological tests are described in details. The best result was observed for compound (15) that caused 76% inhibition on the root growth of D. tortuosum.
