A rhodium-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective cyclization of tethered allenylbenzenes is reported. Employing a Rh<sup>I</sup>/Josiphos catalytic system a diverse set of 6-membered, α-chiral benzocycles were obtained, scaffolds found in many bioactive compounds. Moreover, a gram scale reaction as well as the application of suitable transformations are demonstrated. ...[more]
