Abstract
(Chemical Equation Presented) Oh Mickey, you're so fine: The title reaction, which is efficiently catalyzed by a cinchona alkaloid thioure affords direct access to thiochromanes in high efficiency. The reaction features a new activation mode of organocatalytic dynamic kinetic resolution involving a Michael-retro-Michael-Michael-Michael cascade.
