Herein, the enantioselective synthesis of complex tricyclo[3.2.2.0]nonenes through the Diels-Alder reaction is reported. Utilizing racemic norcaradienes prepared from the visible-light-mediated dearomative cyclopropanation of <i>m</i>-xylene as dienes and enone derivatives as dienophiles, the overall process represents a kinetic asymmetric transformation in the presence of a chiral cobalt(ii) complex of chiral <i>N</i>,<i>N'</i>-dioxide. High diastereo- and enantioselectivity could be obtained i ...[more]
