Abstract

An efficient, organocatalytic enantioselective addition-cyclization reaction of cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with different α,β- unsaturated aldehydes has been developed. The diarylprolinol ether-catalyzed reaction cascade provides a variety of chromenones, quinolinones and pyranones in good yields and with excellent enantioselectivities.
