The asymmetric synthesis of chiral polycyclic ethers by an intramolecular [2+2] photocycloaddition is described. This process proceeded through a photocatalytically active iminium ion-based charge transfer (CT) complex under visible light irradiation. In this way a stereocontrolled [2+2] photocycloaddition is enabled leading to tricyclic products with good enantiomeric ratios.Creation of confined coordination spaces with controlled flexibility is of importance in mimicking enzymatic reactions. We found that a simple, non-chelating
