Cesium-Carbonate-Mediated Benzalation of Substituted 2-Aryl-3-nitro-2 H-chromenes with Substituted 4-Benzylidene-2-phenyloxazol-5(4 H)-ones

Synthesis of 2,3,4-trisubstituted pyrrole derivatives via [3 + 2] cyclization of activated methylene isocyanides with 4-(arylidene)-2-substituted oxazol-5(4H)-ones

An efficient base-catalyzed [3 + 2] cyclization between isocyanides and 4-(arylidene)-2-substituted oxazol-5(4H)-ones has been successfully developed to form 2,3,4-trisubstituted and 2,2,3,4-tetrasubstituted pyrrole derivatives.

Selective construction of functionalized chromeno[3,4-b]pyrroles and benzo[c]chromenesviaa K3PO4promoted three-component reaction

A K₃PO₄promoted three-component reaction of pivaloylacetonitrile (benzoylacetonitrile), dialkyl but-2-ynedioates and 2-aryl-3-nitrochromenes afforded functionalized chromeno[3,4-b]pyrroles.
