Abstract
Abstract An environmentally benign Pechman protocol for the one-pot synthesis of 4-substituted coumarins through the condensation reactions of phenol substrates with β-ketoesters using polystyrene-supported GaCl 3 (PS–GaCl 3 ) as a highly active and reusable solid Lewis acid catalyst under mild and heterogeneous conditions in good to excellent yields is described. This new protocol is easy, simple, cost-effective, chemoselective, and in addition has the advantages of easy availability, stability, reusability and eco-friendly character of the catalyst, high to excellent yields, simple experimental and work-up procedure.
