Abstract

Consideration for the development of new methods for the efficient preparation of heterocyclic compounds is an important issue in the synthesis of organic compounds in chemistry. The benzo[b]pyrans and pyranopyrazoles are important heterocyclic compounds that constitute the structural unit of a series of important natural biological products. In this research, ammonium fluoride was successfully applied to perform a one-pot reaction of aryl aldehydes, dimedone, or 1,3-cyclohexadione and malononitrile in EtOH:H2O (1:1) at room temperature to provide a series of tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyrans in excellent yields. Furthermore, ammonium fluoride catalyzed four-component condensations of aldehyde, malononitrile, hydrazine hydrate, and ethyl acetoacetate to synthesize pyranopyrazole derivatives in EtOH:H2O (1:1) at 80 °C. Clean methodologies, short reaction time, high yields, cost-effective catalysts, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly solvent are some advantages of this research. All products were characterized by spectral data and by comparison with authentic samples reported in the literature.
