Quintessential quinones : The reaction of β‐ketoesters with quinones provides a strategy to perform α‐arylations, particularly when the α‐aryl ring contains electron‐donating groups. The reaction can be carried out enantioselectively by using cinchona alkaloids as organocatalysts and allows the synthesis of complicated polycyclic and spiro chiral compounds.
