Zusammenfassung:Binding the anion: A highly enantioselective iodolactonization of 5‐hexenoic acids has been achieved using a tertiary aminourea‐catalyst (see scheme). The use of catalytic iodine in this process is critical to enhancing both the reactivity and enantioselectivity of the stoichiometric I+ source. The mechanism is proposed to involve binding of an iodonium imidate intermediate by the H‐bond donor catalyst.
