A method for the enantioselective, Lewis base-catalyzed sulfenofunctionalization of cyclic and (<i>Z</i>)-alkenes is reported. The intermediate thiiranium ion generated in the presence of a selenophosphoramide catalyst is intercepted by a variety of nucleophiles. A diverse array of inter- and intramolecular functionalizations proceed in high yield and good to high enantioselectivity (86:14-98:2 er). Prior experimental and computational studies indicated such enantiotopic face discrimination to b ...[more]
