A highly efficient chiral amidine derivative-catalyzed tandem Michael addition/lactonization of carboxylic acids and o-quinone methides (o-QMs) has been developed that enables the asymmetric synthesis of cis-3,4-dihydrocoumarins bearing contiguous tertiary stereogenic centers in high yields with excellent stereoselectivities.
