The preparation of three-dimensional frameworks with multiple stereocentres from simple acyclic hydrocarbons represents a challenging transformation. Now, starting from simple and readily available reagents, formation of these complex targets can be achieved in just three catalytic transformations with high levels of stereocontrol.
