simultaneously. Conjugateaddition of alkylcopper species to an allenic ester produced highly active copper enolate in situ, and the successive asymmetric aldol addition to ketones followed by lactonization afforded the desired products. The addition of MS4A and Lewis base (Ph2S=O, DMSO, or HMPA) is important for obtaining a high yield, with suppression of the undesired alpha-addition pathway. Control/crossover
