Abstract

Highly enantioselective cascade reactions for the synthesis of fluoroindanes and chromanols derivatives are described. The cascade reactions consisted of either a double Michael reaction or Michael- hemiacetal formation via the addition of fluorobis( phenylsulfonyl)methane (FBSM) to enals. The final products were obtained in good yields with excellent stereoselectivities.
