An efficient regioselective reaction of indole with 2H-chromenes for the synthesis of new 4H-chromenes in environmentally benign media

One-Pot Three-Component Synthesis of Indolyl-4H-chromene-3-sulfonyl Fluoride: A Class of Important Pharmacophore

A one-pot, sequential three-component reaction between salicylaldehyde, indole, and 2-bromoprop-2-ene-1-sulfonyl fluoride (BPESF) has been demonstrated for the synthesis of sulfonyl fluoride substituted 4H-chromene derivatives in moderate to excellent yields (45%-94%). This one-pot sequential method features easily available starting materials, wide substrate scope, mild conditions, and great efficiency.

Facile synthesis of 4H-chromene derivatives via base-mediated annulation of ortho-hydroxychalcones and 2-bromoallyl sulfones

The cesium carbonate-mediated reaction of 2-bromoallyl sulfones and ortho-hydroxychalcones furnished 3-arylsulfonyl-4H-chromene derivatives in 58–67% yield (18 examples). 2-Bromoallyl sulfones functioned as synthetic surrogates for allenyl sulfones in the reaction.
