The allyl anion 2 derived from deprotonation of benzoyl(cyanomethyl)ketene dithioacetal 1 with LDA, is shown to undergo anionic [3 + 2] annulation with various activated olefins via tandem Michael addition aldol condensation to afford the corresponding functionalized cyclopentenes in a highly diastereoselective manner.
