A catalytic asymmetric bromocyclization of trisubstituted olefinic amides that uses a C(2)-symmetric mannitol-derived cyclic selenium catalyst and a stoichiometric amount of N-bromophthalimide is reported. The resulting enantioenriched pyrrolidine products, which contain two stereogenic centers, can undergo rearrangement to yield 2,3-disubstituted piperidines with excellent diastereoselectivity and
saturated bicyclic structures incorporated in newly developed bio-active compounds, bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes are playing an increasingly important role, while being still underexplored from a synthetic accessibility point of view. Here, we disclose an efficient and modular approach toward new 1,2-disubstituted bicyclo[2.1.1]hexane modules. Our strategy is based on the use of photochemistry to access new building

investigation as buildingblocks for pharmaceutical drug design. However, the most common methods for their preparation only provide access to bridgehead-substituted structures. The synthesis of bridge-functionalised species is highly challenging but would open up many new opportunities for molecular design. We describe a photocatalytic cycloaddition reaction that provides unified access to bicyclo[2.1
