We have successfully applied 3-oxetanone derived MBH carbonates in the phosphine catalyzed asymmetric [3+2] cyclization with activated thioaurones. With L-threonine derived amide phosphine as the catalyst, a series of oxetane bis-spiro cyclopentene skeletons, involving two spiral scaffold with vicinal tertiary and quaternary stereocenters, were constructed in good yield with good enantioselectivity and moderate to good distereoselectivity.Key words oxetane,
