Abstract

An efficient aminocatalytic enantioselective double-activation strategy has been developed that combines several different aminocatalytic modes in a cascade process, such as iminium ion, vinylogous iminium ion, trienamine, and dienamine activations. By using this strategy, 2-hydroxycinnamaldehydes worked well with various dienals via [4 + 2] cycloaddition and the oxa-Michael reaction-initiated cascade, respectively, leading to chiral polycyclic tetrahydrocarbazole and chromane derivatives with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities.
