Abstract
Enyne diesters derived from 2-propargyloxyarylaldehydes are converted into 2-oxopyranochromenes via In(OTf)3-catalyzed cycloisomerization and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ)-mediated oxidative cyclization reaction sequence in one pot. The process possesses broad substrate scope and good functional group compatibility and generates various 4-(hetero)aryl-substituted 2-oxopyranochromenes in 32-79% yields (over two steps). 2-Oxopyranochromenes undergo selective decarboxylation under Krapcho conditions. When treated with aliphatic secondary amines in DMF, 2-oxopyranochromenes undergo decarboxylative amination at ambient temperature to generate 2-amino-substituted functionalized chromenes in good yields.
