We report the palladium/Br?nsted acid co-catalyzed formal insertion of carbene into the C?O or C?N bond of 2H-chromene acetals or hemiaminal ethers. This transformation was initiated by the Br?nsted acid-promoted cleavage of the C?O or C?N bond, followed by modification of the leaving alcohol or amino fragments with palladium carbenes, and reassembly of the modified fragments. A variety of C-2 functionalized 2H-chromene derivatives were obtained in moderate yield (43~75%) with good to excellent diastereoselectivities (up to >95:5 dr) under mild conditions.
