A bifunctional chiral thiourea―tertiary amine organocatalyst derived from cinchonine was employed to promote the enantioselective Friedel―Craftsalkylation of sesamol and 2-substituted sesamols with various aromatic nitro olefins. The reactions proceeded smoothly to provide the corresponding products in good yields (up to 97 %) and good enantioselectivities (up to 90 % ee).
