Abstract
Facile and convenient procedures have been described for the synthesis of 4H-benzo[g]chromenes by one-pot condensation of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile/ethyl cyanoacetate, and 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone. The reaction has been accomplished using catalytic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in water under reflux or under neat conditions at 110 °C. A task-specific ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium hydroxide ([bmim]OH), has also been found to be an effective catalyst for this transformation. The protocols prove to be environmentally benign and offer advantages of good yields, short reaction times, and simple workup procedures. The ionic liquid could be recycled and reused for up to four runs without appreciable loss in the activity.
