Abstract
The first highly stereoselective intermolecular catalytic asymmetric dearomatization (CADA) of α-naphthols through C-C formation and the first asymmetric allylic dearomatization of naphthols by chiral organocatalysis have been achieved. These new and complete atom-economic reactions provide enantioriched α- and β-naphthalenones bearing an all-carbon quaternary center.
