The stereoselective annulation of α-oxocarboxylic acids with 1,3-dienes proceeded in the presence of a hydroxoiridium catalyst to give α-hydroxy-γ-lactones in good yields with high 3,5-trans relative stereochemistry. The use of a chiral diene ligand for a cationic iridium complex enabled asymmetric annulation with high enantioselectivity.
