Notes:
The reaction between the chiral allenic acid (+)-(S)-1 and the carbodiimides 2a-d and the keten-imine 6 gives, under mild conditions, the tricyclic compounds 3-5, 7, and 8. Low diastereoselectivity and a partial loss of optical activity are observed. A stepwise mechanistic pathway via a biradical intermediate is postulated.
