Abstract
Once, twice, three times a catalyst! A novel domino rhodium(I)-catalyzed asymmetric transformation of substituted oxabicyclic alkenes into bicyclo[2.2.2]lactones proceeded with good yields (up to 78 %) and excellent stereoselectivity (>97 % ee; see scheme; cod=1,5-cyclooctadiene, Tf=trifluoromethanesulfonyl). Mechanistic investigations suggest that this process proceeds by rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric ring opening, allylic alcohol isomerization and oxid
