A highly enantioselective [4+2] cycloaddition reaction of beta,gamma-unsaturated alpha-keto esters with oxazolones was realized with readily available cinchona alkaloids as the catalysts. Using this reaction, a series of highly functionalized delta-lactones with adjacent alpha-quaternary-beta-tertiary stereocenters were obtained in high yields (up to 97%) and with good-to-excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee).
