Abstract: This chapter deals with [4 + 2] anionic annulation of nonactivated o-toluate donors. The respective annulations have been subclassified as the "Staunton-Weinreb annulation and Myers annulation. The Staunton-Weinreb annulation involves β-methoxy unsaturated ester and ketone acceptors, whereas the Myers annulation entails cycloalkenone acceptors. These annulations have paved the ways for the total synthesis of many natural products including tetracyclines.
