The acid-base organocatalyzed intramolecular Rauhut-Currier (RC) reaction of the dienone enolates has been developed. The enantioselective RC process produces the highly functionalized alpha-methylidene-gamma-butyrolactones as a single diastereomer with up to 98% ee. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
