Fine‐tuning : Three types of optically active trans ‐2,3‐disubstituted‐2,3‐dihydrobenzofurans having three contiguous stereogenic centers can be efficiently accessed by one‐pot reaction cascades (see scheme; TMS=trimethylsilyl). High substitution diversity of the final products can be achieved from the same common precursors by fine‐tuning of their reactivity through simple structural modifications.
