Abstract
A quinine-squaramide catalyzed enantioselective inverse-electron-demand hetero-Diels–Alder reaction between γ-butenolides and ortho-hydroxyphenyl p-QMs has been disclosed. A wide range of chiral 3, 4-dihydrocoumarins frameworks with two adjacent stereogenic centers have been directly and concisely prepared in excellent results (up to 94 % yield, 99:1 dr, 98:2 er) under mild conditions.
