Highly efficient enantioselective three-component synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromenes catalysed by chiral tertiary amine-thioureas.

A three-component cascade reaction of salicylaldehyde, malononitrile/cyanoacetate and nitromethane catalysed by chiral tertiary amino-thioureas was developed, which leads to the production of highly functionalized 2-amino-4H-chromenes in good yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities.
