Asymmetric Michael reaction of 3-homoacyl coumarins with chromone-fused dienes toward enantioenriched coumarin chromone skeletons

Org Biomol Chem. 2021 Sep 29;19(37):8102-8107. doi: 10.1039/d1ob01200b.

Abstract

Asymmetric Michael reaction of 3-homoacyl coumarins and chromone-fused dienes was developed by employing a chiral squaramide, and a series of coumarin chromone skeletons were furnished in moderate to high yields (up to 99%) and stereoselectivities (up to 98 : 2 dr, 99% ee).
