a

Reaction conditions: Cu(OTf)2 (0.2 equiv) and (R,R)-11a (0.2 equiv) were combined and treated with PhCF3 (0.1 M w/r to substrate) and heated at 50 °C for 1h. Substrate (1 equiv), MnO2 (3 equiv) and K2CO3 (1 equiv) were added and the reaction tube was sealed and heated at 120 °C for 24 h unless otherwise noted. All reactions were run at least two times to ensure reproducibility.

b

Yields refer to amount isolated after purification by flash chromatography on SiO2.

c

Enantiomeric excess and ratios were determined by chiral HPLC anlaysis (chiralcel OD-H or AD-RH).

d

Reactions were run for 96 h.
