The asymmetric synthesis of 2-amino-5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-chromene derivatives was achieved through a tandem Michael addition-cyclization reaction of easily available cyclohexane-1,3-dione and ethyl 2-cyano-3-phenylacrylates. Moderate to good yields (up to 81%) and high enantioselectivities (up to 89%ee) were obtained with a chiral salen-cobalt(II) complex. This process was air tolerant and easily performed, which provides an efficient method for the synthesis of chiral 4H-chromene derivatives.
