A high-yielding cyclocondensation of 4-hydroxycoumarin, phenylglyoxal monohydrate, and heteroarylamines proceeds without catalysis, which gives novel functionalized furo[3,2-c]coumarins and heteroarylamino alkylation of coumarin products in acetonitrile under reflux, is reported for the first time. This tandem process involves sequentially an aldol condensation, Michael addition, a ring closure, and dehydration reaction.
Herein, we report the approach to the otherwise hardly accessible dibenzoxanthenes, diarylbutanes, and calix[4]resorcinarenes possessing urea moieties based on the reaction of N-(4,4-diethoxybutyl)ureas with electron-rich aromatics in strongly acidic media. Unlike the previously developed methods, the proposed approach benefits from one-pot procedure and allows to obtain the target compounds with much higher yields.
A copper catalyzed three-component synthesis of π-conjugated tetracyclic thiochromeno-quinolinone and thiochromeno-thioflavone was established via oxidative double hetero Michael addition using in situ generated nucleophiles.
