Spiroannulation by Alkylation and Reductive Cyclization of Nitriles

A new ring‐forming reaction has been developed in which nitriles act as 1,1‐dianion synthons with biselectrophiles. The cyclizations are highly diastereoselective and are capable of forming two adjacent quaternary centers with complete selectivity (see scheme; LiDBB=lithium di‐tert‐butylbiphenylide)...
