Abstract

An uncatalyzed efficient synthesis of bioactive pyridine derivatives has been investigated for the first time by a three-component sequential multicomponent reaction tackled with aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, and 1,3-indandione via Knoevenagel condensation followed by Michael addition. The difference between the domino multicomponent and sequential multicomponent reaction is emphasized by this methodology. The reaction proceeds at ambient temperature without frequently useful N-source like ammonium salt for the construction of N-heterocycles, which makes this protocol a novel synthetic route for the preparation of the indenopyridine skeleton.
