Abstract

An efficient Lewis acid mediated domino Knoevenagel/hetero Diels–Alder (DKHDA) reaction of pyrazolone derivatives with N-acrylated anthranilic aldehydes was developed, which afforded functionalized tetracyclic tetrahydropyrazolo[4',3':5,6]pyrano[3,4-c]quinolones. The products were formed in good yields and with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity in favor of the cis-configured isomer.

  • 32 Synthesis of Products 3a–h by DKHDA Reaction; General Procedure A mixture of N-acrylated anthranilaldehyde 1 (0.5 mmol), N-phenyl pyrazolone 2 (0.5 mmol), and ZnBr2 (50 mol%) was stirred in EtOH heated to reflux (5 mL). The progress of the reaction was followed by TLC. After completion (5 h) and cooling down, ice-cold water (20 mL) was poured into the reaction mixture. The resulting precipitate was filtered after stirring for 5 min and washed with cold water. After air drying at room temperature, the pure product 3 was obtained by column chromatography on silica gel, by eluting with n-hexane/ethyl acetate (2:1).
