17. • developed an enantioselective one-pot sequential Michael
addition/hydroalkoxylation reaction by combining hydrogen-
bonding catalysis and π-activation.
• This merger provided substituted 4H-pyranonaphthoquinones in
moderate to very good yields and excellent enantioselectivities by
using low catalyst loading of squaramide
