Abstract
For the rapid elaboration of polycarbocyclic scaffolds, prevalent in many important families of terpenoid natural products, allyl cations derived from simple heterocyclic alcohols can be used as versatile reaction partners in both (4+3) and (3+2) cycloaddition pathways. Our recent progress in this area is outlined, pointing towards the untapped potential of heterocycles to act as reagents in novel or known but challenging organic transformations.

- 10 Note on nomenclature and the use of the term ‘cycloaddition’: The use of the word cycloaddition and its precise meaning is often a source of discussion. For the purpose of this text, ‘cycloaddition’ is intented to indicate the net transformation of two or more (conjugated) π systems with the formation of new single bonds at the expense of double bonds, leading to a novel cyclic bonding array, without further mechanistic implications. In this light, the reaction between a furfuryl alcohol and a diene giving the seven-membered ring adduct is not a cycloaddition. On the other hand, the transformation of the intermediate furfuryl cation and the diene into the initially formed cationic adduct (before rearomatization) is a cycloaddition by this definition.
