An organocatalytic cascade reaction of malononitrile and α-substituted chalcones has been developed for the synthesis of chiral multisubstituted 2-amino-4H-pyran derivatives. A series of chiral primary/tertiary amines and cinchona alkaloids were examined as the catalysts. Quinine was found to be the most efficient catalyst in the absence of any additive. The α-substitutents of the chalcones had a siginificant effect on the yield and the enantioselectivity. A number of multisubstituted 2-amino-4H-pyrans were obtained in excellent yields and enantioselectivities.
