Asymmetric cycloaddition reactions have emerged as one of the powerful and reliable strategies for the construction of enantioenriched molecules, especially those with polycyclic frameworks. Herein, we report the asymmetric decarboxylative [3 + 2] cycloaddition of γ-methylidene-δ-valerolactones with nitroolefins under the cooperative catalysis of a palladium complex and a chiral urea-tertiary amine, delivering a variety of chiral spiro[2.4]heptanes in good yields with high enantioselectivities and moderate diastereoselectivities. The mild reaction conditions, in conjunction with good functional group tolerance, provided an easy access to multisubstituted chiral spiro[2.4]heptanes bearing three contiguous stereogenic centers including an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter. Moreover, this study reports the first asymmetric decarboxylative and dearomative [3 + 2] reaction of 2-nitrobenzofurans with 1,4-dipoles to afford complex polycyclic scaffolds. Large-scale synthesis and synthetic transformations of the product further demonstrate its synthetic utility.
