The formation of trans ‐1,2‐disubstituted cyclopentanes such as 2 from 1,6‐dienes such as 1 with acceptor substituents R is a remarkable process‐‐‐in the presence of ZnBr 2 the non‐induced selectivity ( trans / cis ratio) is > 96.5 :3.5 and the induced selectivity (asymmetric induction) for R′ = Me is > 99:1. Such configurated five‐membered rings are, inter alia, contained in prostaglandins and brefeldin (R′ = H, Me).
