The asymmetric organocatalytic conjugate addition–cyclization reaction of malonates with o ‐hydroxycinnamaldehydes, which affords 4‐substituted chroman‐2‐ols, has been established using a diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl (TMS) ether as organocatalyst. The desired products were obtained with good to excellent yields and high enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee ). Synthetically useful chroman derivatives were formed after subsequent reactions.
