Abstract

The use of α,ω‐dienes as functionalization reagents for olefinic carbon–hydrogen bonds has been rarely studied. Reported herein is the rhodium(I)‐catalyzed rearrangement of prochiral 1,6‐heptadienes into [2,2,1]‐cycloheptane derivatives with concomitant creation of at least three stereogenic centers and complete diastereocontrol. Deuterium‐labeling studies and the isolation of a key intermediate are consistent with a group‐directed C-H bond activation, followed by two consecutive migratory insertions, with only the latter step being diastereoselective.
