General Procedure for the Synthesis of 14-Alkyl or Aryl Dibenzo[ a,j ]xanthenes - Method A.
A mixture of aldehyde (2 mmol), β-naphthol (4 mmol) and LiBr (0.3 mmol) were mixed and stirred for 5 min at r.t. and then temperature was raised to 130 °C and maintained for the appropriate time given in Table [1] . After completion of reaction (TLC), the reaction mixture was cooled to r.t. and H2O (20 mL) was added and the mixture stirred for 5 min. The solid thus obtained was filtered and the crude product obtained was purified by recrystallization from EtOH.
Method B.
A mixture of aldehyde (2 mmol,), β-naphthol (4 mmol) and LiBr (0.3 mmol) were irradiated in a domestic microwave oven at 500 W for the appropriate time according to Table [1] . After completion of reaction (TLC), the reaction mixture was cooled to r.t. and H2O (20 mL) was added and the mixture stirred for 5 min. The solid thus obtained was filtered and the crude product obtained was purified by recrystallization from EtOH.

General Procedure for the Synthesis of Tetrahydrobenzo[ b ]pyran - Method A.
A mixture of aldehyde (2 mmol,), 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclo-hexanedione (2 mmol), active methylene compound (2 mmol) and LiBr (0.6 mmol) was mixed and stirred for 5 min at r.t. and then heated at 90 °C for the appropriate time given in Table [2] . After completion of reaction (TLC), the reaction mixture was cooled to r.t., H2O (20 mL) was added and the mixture stirred for 5 min. The solid thus obtained was filtered and the crude product obtained was purified by recrystallization from EtOH.
