Description

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Facile and effective access for the asymmetric construction of the useful and important skeleton of the bicyclic N,O‐acetals is described. Cu<jats:sup>II</jats:sup>/SaBOX could catalyze the reaction of β,γ‐unsaturated α‐ketoesters with cyclic enamines efficiently, thus affording the desired products in excellent yields with excellent stereoselectivities (21 examples; up to 99 % yields; up to >95:5 d.r.; and 95–99 % <jats:italic>ee</jats:italic>). This reaction can be well performed on gram scale, even with only 1 mol % catalyst loading. The single‐crystal structures of the copper complexes lead to a good understanding of the stereo‐synergistic effects of the sidearm.</jats:p>
