We developed a cationic iron(III) salt initiator for radical cation‐induced [4+2] cycloaddition. Fe(OTf) 3 [or Fe(ClO 4 ) 3 ] behaves as a highly active oxidant for both electron‐deficient and electron‐rich dienophiles. The scope of substrates is much broader than with FeCl 3 reported previously. With highly active Fe(OTf) 3 , we demonstrate a formal total synthesis of Heitziamide A.
