Asymmetric ring transformation of meso-7-substituted bicyclo[3.3.0]octanones into chiral bicyclo[3.2.1]octene derivatives

Abstract
Asymmetric ring transformation of meso-7-(2-oxoalkyl)bicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-ones into chiral bicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-ene derivatives is accomplished by treatment with chiral cyclic (six- or seven-membered ring) 1,2-diols–BF3–Et2O.
