Bismuth(III)trifluoromethanesulfonate (Bi(OTf) 3 ) catalyzes the reaction of β,γ‐unsaturated ketone and 1,4‐dithiane‐2,5‐diol to afford highly substituted tetrahydrothiophenes via sequential rearrangement, Michael and aldol reactions in good yields. The reaction is highly diastereoselective. Bi(OTf) 3 acts as a catalyst for all three reactions.
