    Utilization of CO<sub>2</sub> as a C1 Building Block in a Tandem Asymmetric A<sup>3</sup> Coupling-Carboxylative Cyclization Sequence to 2‑Oxazolidinones

    We report a tandem asymmetric aldehyde–alkyne–amine (A<sup>3</sup>) coupling-carboxylative cyclization sequence for the highly enantioselective synthesis of chiral <i>N</i>-aryl 2-oxazolidinones. This is a rare example of a multicatalyst-promoted asymmetric tandem reaction using CO<sub>2</sub> as a C1 synthon. Notably, the copper species and ligand from the upstream A<sup>3</sup> reaction are internally reused to facilitate the downstream silver-catalyzed carboxylative cyclization
