Several 2H-chromenes derived from carbazoles were analyzed by electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. The 2H-chromenes constitute an important class of compounds that exhibit photochromic activity. The fragmentation pathways of the protonated molecular species [M+H]+ were studied, and main fragmentation pathways of these compounds were identified. Fragmentation pathways of [M+D]+ ions were also ...

The reactions of 2-perfluoroacyl-1H-benzo[f]chromenes and 6,7-dimethyl-3-trifluoroacetyl-4H-chromene with primary aliphatic amines ammonia afforded a series enamino ketones containing (2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methyl or 2-hydroxybenzyl substituent in the ?-position respect to carbonyl group. These involved opening pyran ring, which followed aza-Michael addition as initial step. obtained were fo...

A palladium-catalyzed reaction of 2-haloaryl allene with 2-alkynylphenol is described, leading to 6H-naphtho[2,3-c]chromenes in good to excellent yields. This transformation proceeds efficiently with excellent chemoselectivity and regioselectivity.

The reactive intermediate generated by the addition of tert-butyl and 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl butyl isocyanide and cyclohexyl isocyanide to dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate was trapped by 3-hydroxy pyridine to produce highly functionalized 4H-chromenes in fairly good  yields

The reactive intermediate generated by the addition of tert-butyl and 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl butyl isocyanide and cyclohexyl isocyanide to dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate was trapped by 3-hydroxy pyridine to produce highly functionalized 4H-chromenes in fairly good  yields.

The synthesis of 6H-benzo[c]chromenes from unactivated 2-bromo aryl benzyl ethers was studied through two approaches: (i) the transition-metal-free intramolecular dehydrohalide coupling via intramolecular homolytic aromatic substitution; and (ii) the intramolecular cyclization via direct C–H arylation catalysed by PdCl2(MeCN)2. Having developed the most efficient method, a 17-membered chromene ...
