Chiral cis-hydrobenzofurans represent a unique motif existing in numerous natural products, for instance, isoambrox, [1] haterumaimide I, [2] rosenonolactone, [3] incarviditone, [4] and millingtonine A [5] (Scheme 1 a). Owing to their diverse biological activities, [1][2][3][4][5] a great deal of attention has been paid to the development of efficient methods toward their enantioselective syntheses. One of the most straightforward and powerful ways to construct such a framework is the catalytic asymmetric desymmetrization of cyclohexadienones (Scheme 1 b).
