Herein, a concise approach to construct the novel tricyclic ether frameworks, is presented. Microwave‐assisted dual C‐C bond‐forming palladium‐catalyzed intramolecular Heck/intermolecular Sonogashira couplings were implemented, for the synthesis of dihydrobenfurans bearing acetylene moiety, followed by acid‐induced intramolecular hydroarylation reaction of the crude reaction mixture furnished the tricyclic ether systems. Notably, these tricyclic ether frameworks have been achieved, in excellent yields, through a single column chromatography process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
