Catalytic asymmetric multiple dearomatizations of phenols enabled by a cascade 1,8-addition and Diels-Alder reaction.


ABSTRACT: A direct catalytic asymmetric multiple dearomatization reaction of phenols was disclosed, which provides expedient access to a series of architecturally complex polycyclic compounds bearing four stereogenic centers in high enantiopurity. The key to achieve such a transformation is the combination of a dearomative 1,8-addition of β-naphthols to para-quinone methides generated in situ from propargylic alcohols and a subsequent intramolecular dearomative Diels-Alder reaction. Noteworthily, this protocol enrichs not only the diversity of dearomatized products but also the toolbox of dearomatization strategies.
