摘要

BBr3‐assisted chiral phosphoric acid catalysts for enantioselective [2+2] cycloaddition were developed. The reactions of phenyl vinyl sulfide with α‐substituted acroleins proceeded, and the corresponding [2+2] cycloadducts were obtained with high enantioselectivity. In particular, the [2+2] cycloadduct obtained from methacrolein was a synthetically useful optically active cyclobutane, which could be transformed to a key intermediate for (+)‐frontalin, a pheromone of Asian elephants.
