Abstract
A reaction involving the use of acetylacetone/methyl acetoacetate and Morita–Baylis–Hillman acetates for the efficient, one‐pot, metal‐free synthesis of 9,10‐dihydroacridines at room temperature was developed. The cascade of reactions involved sequential SN2′–SNAr reactions, elimination, and reduction through ketene generation and hydride transfer. Evidence for hydride shift via a ketene intermediate was also discussed.
