An unprecedented regioselective and anti stereoselective asymmetric ring opening of 1,3-cyclopentadiene-heterodienophile cycloadducts, including also 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.1]heptenes, with hard alkylmetals and copper-phosphoramidite catalysts, is reported. The induced ring opening, in conjunction with C-C bond formation, gives a catalytic and practical access to new heterofunctionalized cyclopentenes in an enantioenriched form (up to 86% ee).
