✦ Synopsis

The Nazarov reaction is a well-established method for the generation of new cyclopentenone rings from simple dienone precursors. [1] This reaction has enjoyed considerable recent attention with regard to its use in tandem or domino processes, [2] as well as in approaches for controlling the absolute configuration of the stereocenters generated during or after the electrocyclization process. [3] We have recently
