We envisaged that the core skeleton would be constructed by
the intramolecular (3ꢀ3) cycloaddition. Treatment of 9,
which was prepared from cyclohexanone according to the re-
ported procedure,15) with Tf2NH (10 mol%) in refluxing
CHCl3 gave tricyclic product 10 in 45% yield as a single di-
astereomer along with a diastereomeric mixture of 11 (Chart
4). The relative stereochemistry of 10 was established by the
following procedure. Tricyclic cyclobutane 12,15) whose
stereochemistry was known, was prepared by the reaction of
10 in the presence of Tf2NH at ꢂ78 °C. The desilylative
retro-aldol reaction of 12 furnished spirocyclic compound
(1R*,5S*)-11a.15) Silyl enol etherification of 11a, followed
by intramolecular Claisen condensation, afforded stereo-
chemically confirmed (1R*,4R*,8S*)-10, whose spectral data
were identical to the above (3ꢀ3) cycloadduct 10 (Chart 5).
In conclusion, we have developed a Tf2NH catalyzed for-
mal (3ꢀ3) cycloaddition of silyl enol ethers with acrylates.
In the domino sequence, the catalyst activates Michael addi-
tion, deprotonation of the resulting silyloxonium cation and
intramolecular Claisen condensation.24) We also demon-
strated the construction of the clovane skeleton by the in-
tramolecular reaction. Further studies to improve the chemi-
cal yield are under investigation. It is noteworthy that reac-
tion modes significantly depend on the reaction temperature.
The (3ꢀ3) Cycloadduct was given at ambient temperature,
whereas (2ꢀ2) cycloadduct was exclusively obtained at
ꢂ78 °C.

NEt3 (1.2 mmol) in MeCN (2.0 ml) was added TBSCl (1.2 mmol) in MeCN
(3.0 ml). To the mixture was added NaI (1.2 mmol) in MeCN (5.0 ml) drop-
wise. After being stirred 48 h at ambient temperature, the resulting mixture
was quenched with aqueous NaHCO3 and extracted three times with AcOEt.
The combined organic layers were washed with brine and dried over
Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel
chromatography (hexane : AcOEt : NEt3ꢃ200 : 10 : 1) to afford 9 in 88%

Experimental
General Procedure for the Formal (3ꢀ3) Cycloaddition To a solution
of 1 (0.50 mmol) in refluxed CHCl3 (5 ml) were added Tf2NH in 0.08 M
toluene solution (0.050 mmol) and 2a (0.50 mmol). After being stirred for
1 h, the resulting mixture was quenched with aqueous NaHCO3 and ex-
tracted twice with CHCl3. The combined organic layers were washed with
brine and dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was
purified by silica gel chromatography.
