Abstract
The palladium-catalysed cascade cyclisation reactions of carbohydrate derived dienynes for the synthesis of enantiopure tricyclic compounds is described. Carbocyclisation under Wacker conditions in the presence of LiCl gave rise to a remarkable stereocontrolled ring expansion process and formation of two C-Cl bonds.
