Chiral γ-lactones are prevalent organic architectures found in a large array of natural products. In this work, we disclose the development of a modified catalytic system utilizing a commercially available Cu-phosphite catalyst for the diastereoselective reductive coupling of chiral allenamides and ketones to afford chiral γ-lactone precursors in 80:20 to 99:1 dr.
