Utilizing two robust C-C bond-forming reactions, the Baylis-Hillman reaction and the Diels-Alder reaction, we report a highly enantio-, regio-, and diastereoselective synthesis of hexahydro-2H-chromenes via two sequential [4 + 2] cycloadditions. These tandem and formal cycloadditions have also been performed as a "one-pot" sequence to access the corresponding heterocycles constituting up to five contiguous stereocenters in excellent yields and stereoselectivity. ...[more]
