At the end of its tether! The fusion of a six‐membered ring onto the four‐carbon‐atom tether of substrate 1 provides an efficient approach toward the polycyclic ring systems of the natural products aphidicolin and stemodinone. The reaction represents a unique example of a preference for product formation from an endo exciplex in an intramolecular system ( exo : endo 2 : 3 =1.0:1.2).
