In this work, the one-step diastereoselective synthesis of cis-2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofuransviaLewis acid catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloadditions of donor-acceptor (D-A) cyclopropanes and aldehydes is described. The scope and limitations with respect to both reaction partners are provided. A detailed examination of the mechanism has been performed, including stereochemical analysis and electronic profiling
