Abstract
A highly enantioselective oxidative dearomatization of naphthols with quinones catalyzed by a chiral spirocyclic phosphoric acid is described. The strategy provides concise access to enantioenriched cyclohexadienones with a quinone moiety. Remarkably, the obtained products could be easily transformed to a potentially useful dihydronaphtho[2,1-b]benzofuran scaffold.Entities:
