An easily accessible chiral iridium-BINAP complex can effect the cooperative processes of decarbonylation of an aldehyde and cascaded enantioselective Pauson-Khand-type reaction. A survey of ligands revealed that atropisomeric aryl-diphosphine ligands were superior to chiral alkyl-diphosphines in this dual catalysis. Applying the reaction conditions of [IrCl(COD)](2)/(S)-BINAP complex with nonylaldehyde as a CO surrogate at 100 degrees C in anhydrous dioxane solvent, various 1,6-enynes were transformed to the corresponding optically active bicyclic cyclopentenones with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee).

The reaction of enynes with acetyl-masked aldoses in the presence of a rhodium(I) catalyst resulted in cyclocarbonylation, thus avoiding the direct use of carbon monoxide, to afford bicyclic cyclopentenones. In rhodium catalysis, aldoses serve as a carbon monoxide equivalent by donating their carbonyl moieties on the acyclic aldehyde form to enynes. A variety of aldoses, including d-glucose, d-mannose
