Hold the metal : Upon exposure of acetates 1 to substoichiometric quantities of triphenylphosphane in the presence of 2 , regioselective metal‐free allylic substitution occurs through a formal tandem S N 2′–S N 2′ substitution mechanism to provide γ‐butenolides 3 with high levels of regio‐ and diastereocontrol (see scheme).
