Tandem aldehyde–alkyne–amine coupling/cycloisomerization: A new synthesis of coumarins

Cu-catalyzed A3 coupling of ethoxyacetylene, pyrrolidine and salicylaldehydes led to a concomitant cycloisomerization followed by hydrolysis of the resultant vinyl ether to afford coumarins in a cascade process. The reaction proceeded through exclusive 6-endo-dig cyclization and is compatible with h...
