N-Heterocyclic carbene catalyzed conjugate umpolung reactions leading to coumarin derivatives

Abstract

The NHC-catalyzed selective condensation reactions between cinnamaldehydes and salicylaldehydes viahomoenolate intermediates are described. A number of 3-benzyl-chromen-2-ones could be obtained in good yields. The reactions occurred in high yielding with low catalyst loading.
