Fooling Mother Nature : When the bicyclo[4.2.0]octanes A are bridged as in precursors B (Z=CO), the otherwise impossible [2+2] photocycloaddition reaction of 1,7‐dienes is possible with substrates such as C . A subsequent Baeyer–Villiger oxidation serves to desymmetrize substrates B and establishes a general approach to enantiomerically pure products A .
