Abstract

The 1,1a,2,7b-tetrahydrocyclopropa[c]chromene, aris-ing from fusion of chromane and cyclopropane rings is the core of medicinally relevant compounds. Engaging sulfoxonium ylides in enantioselective aminocatalytic reactions for the first time, a convenient entry to this scaffold is presented. Several ring-fused derivatives were obtained in moderate-to-good yields and enantiose-lectivities and with perfect diastereoselectivity at the cyclopropane, using an alpha,alpha-diphenylprolinol aminocatalyst. The versatility of the hemiacetal moiety in the products was leveraged to effect various synthetic manipulations.
