Abstract:Comprehensive SummaryThe reductive lactonization strategy provides an efficient access to diastereoenriched polycyclic γ‐lactones. However, it is still a formidable challenge to develop an efficient and versatile protocol with excellent levels of diastereocontrol. Herein, we provide a highly diastereoselective and efficient route to diastereopure bi‐ and polycyclic γ‐lactones, by means of an iridium‐catalyzed hydride transfer strategy. This method features high levels of diastereocontrol, broad substrate scope… Show more
