Abstract
[reaction: see text]. A convenient enantioselective synthesis of trans-hydroisoquinolones is described. This synthesis capitalizes on the ready availability of enantioenriched 2-substituted cyclohexenols by exploiting the asymmetry of an allylic carbon-oxygen sigma bond to control carbon-carbon bond formation in pinacol-terminated cyclizations of N-acyliminium cations.
