Highly Enantioselective [3+2] Annulation of Cyclic Enol Silyl Ethers with Donor–Acceptor Cyclopropanes: Accessing <i>3a</i>‐Hydroxy [<i>n</i>.3.0]Carbobicycles

Abstract

A new fuse: The title reaction was realized using a new bisoxazoline (BOX)/CuII catalyst. This reaction works well with cyclic enol silyl ethers of different sizes, and can be extended to dienol and benzene-fused substrates, thus providing an effective and general access to a range of 3a-hydroxy [n.3.0]carbobicycles which are found as a core structure in many natural products. TBDPS=tert-butyldiphenylsilyl. As a service to our authors and readers, this journal provides supporting information supplied by the authors.
