A method for the catalytic, enantioselective, carbosulfenylation of alkenes to construct 3,4-disubstituted chromans is described. Alkene activation proceeds through the intermediacy of enantioenriched, configurationally stable thiiranium ions generated from catalytic, Lewis base activation of an electrophilic sulfenylating agent. The transformation affords difficult-to-generate, enantioenriched, 3,4-disubstituted chromans in moderate to high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. A variety of substituents are compatible including electronically diverse functional groups as well as several functional handles such as aryl halides, esters, anilines, and phenols. The resulting thioether moiety is amenable to a number of functional group manipulations and transformations. Notably, the pendant sulfide was successfully cleaved to furnish a free thiol which readily provides access to most sulfur-containing functional groups which are present in natural products and pharmaceuticals.
Gold-catalyzed intramolecular hydroarylation of olefins. Scope evaluation and preliminary mechanistic studies

supporting information; experimental part, p. 3509 - 3513 (2011/07/09)
We report a gold-catalyzed intramolecular hydroarylation of unactivated olefins using a combination of AuCl3/AgOTf as the catalytic system affording dihydrobenzopyrans, tetralins and tetrahydroquinolines in good yields. For our preliminary mechanistic studies, we have investigated the kinetic isotope effects with deuterated arene compounds and found that this catalytic hydroarylation is consistent with an electrophilic aromatic substitution process.
Reaction between phenols and isoprene under zeolite catalysis. Highly selective synthesis of chromans and o-isopentenylphenols
Bigi, Franca,Carloni, Silvia,Maggi, Raimondo,Muchetti, Chiara,Rastelli, Massimo,Sartori, Giovanni
, p. 301 - 304 (2007/10/03)
Chromans 3 and o-isopentenylphenols 4 are synthesized in satisfactory to good yields and selectivities by the reaction of phenols and isoprene in the presence of the commercially available acid faujasite zeolite HSZ-360.
