3-Arylidenechroman-4-ones and 2-arylidene-1-tetralones are hydrogenated to cis-benzylic alcohols in dr’s and er’s up to 99:1 via a C═C and C═O one-pot reduction in the presence of 2–5 mol % Noyori–Ikariya-type RuII chiral complexes and HCO2Na as a hydrogen source under asymmetric transfer hydrogenation–dynamic kinetic resolution (ATH-DKR) conditions. The oxidation of theses substrates resulted in the
