Iridium-Catalyzed Annulation of Salicylimines with 1,3-Dienes

Iridium-catalyzed annulation of salicylimines with 1,3-dienes gave high yields of the corresponding 4-aminochromanes with high stereoselectivity. The use of a chiral diene ligand enabled the asymmetric reaction to give 4-aminochromanes with high enantioselectivity
