> What is the way in emacs to alias Ctr-chi to Ctr-x ?

I'd do it in input-decode-map:

  (define-key input-decode-map [?\C-χ] [?\C-x])
  (define-key input-decode-map [?\C-ψ] [?\C-s])

> (global-set-key "\C-χ\C-ψ" 'save-buffers-kill-emacs)
> returns with 
> error: Invalid modifier in string

Event sequences are vectors, the string syntax is still allowed but only
covers limited cases as you've just discovered.
