An asymmetric alkylation-ring-closing metathesis strat- egy was developed for the construction of a,a'-disubstituted medi- um ring ethers. The approach features an asymmetric alkylation of highly functionalized a-alkoxy acyl oxazolidinones followed by ring closure effected by Grubbs ' ruthenium catalyst. The relation- ship between diene conformation and the rate of ring-closure was examined.
