摘要

An efficient synthetic strategy to chromone derivatives from commercially available diethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and phenols via a one-pot cascade reaction has been developed. Performing the reaction using pyridine and polyphosphoric acid as the catalyst at room temperature and 90 degrees C without any solvent gave the chromone derivatives in good to high yields at one time. A possible reaction pathway was also proposed and supported by the experiment. This protocol is environmentally friendly and metal-free, with advantages including short reaction times, convenient operation, and mild reaction conditions.
