title: Catalytic enantioselective intermolecular [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of an alkene and two alkynes.
abstract: A catalytic enantioselective intermolecular [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition of one molecule of alkene (enone) and two molecules of alkyne was developed in the presence of a nickel complex modified by chiral monodentate oxazoline ligands, which have not previously been used as chiral ligands for transition metals in asymmetric catalysts, and an aluminium phenoxide.
