It has been established that bismuth(III) triflate catalyzes the cyclization of γ‐allenic ketones under mild reaction conditions. This reaction allows the selective formation of polycyclic tertiary alcohols from cyclic ketone derivatives. The resulting dienols can engage in stereoselective cycloadditions to efficiently afford complex polycyclic systems.
