Abstract
The DielsAlder reaction of 1,4‐benzoquinone with 1,3‐dienes catalyzed by Mikami's [Ti{(S)‐binol(2−)}Cl~2~] complex (binol=[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diol) gives cycloadducts in good yield and in high enantiomer excess. A model is proposed to explain the observed absolute configuration of cycloadducts, and the reaction is used as the key step in an asymmetric synthesis leading to the alkaloid (−)‐ibogamine.
