Counterion-directed approach to the Diels-Alder paradigm: cascade synthesis of tricyclic fused cyclopropanes

An approach to the intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction has led to a cascade synthesis of complex carbocycles composed of three fused rings and up to five stereocentres with complete stereocontrol. Computational analysis reveals that the reaction proceeds via a Michael-Michael-cyclopropanation-epimer...
