Abstract
A [6 + 2] annulation that involves the combination of β-alkenoyl acylsilanes and a vinyllithium derivative enables in one operation and a stereoselective manner the construction of eight-membered ring systems containing useful functionalities for further synthetic elaboration from readily available six- and two-carbon components.
