Although phosphines serve as nucleophilic catalysts for an array of useful transformations, comparatively few highly enantioselective variants in the presence of chiral phosphines have been described.[1, 2] In 1994, Trost discovered a novel dppp-catalyzed (dppp= 1, 3-bis (diphenylphosphino) propane) cyclization of hydroxy-2-alkynoates that generates saturated oxygen heterocycles.[3] Despite the importance of such structures, owing to their presence in a wide range of bioactive molecules,[4] there has been no progress toward the development of an asymmetric version of the Trost cyclization. Herein, we establish that chiral spiro phosphepine 1 can achieve this objective with a variety of hydroxy-2-alkynoates with good enantiomeric excess [Eq.(1)].A plausible pathway for the phosphine-catalyzed cyclization of hydroxy-2-alkynoates has been suggested by Trost and Li (Scheme 1).[3] On the basis of this mechanism, it seemed reasonable to anticipate that the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of oxygen heterocycles might be achieved through the use of an appropriate chiral phosphine. In our initial studies, we investigated the cyclization of hydroxy-2-alkynoate 2 to form tetrahydrofuran 3 in the presence of an array of chiral bisphosphines (Table 1, entries 1–4), since Trost had reported that dppp is significantly more effective than PPh3 for nonasymmetric processes.[3] Because the results were not especially promising, we turned our attention to monophosphines (Table1, entries5–9). Phosphepines emerged as the most
